Thank you for doing this. I have a ton of these brushes for laying around they usually get relegated for doing glue, by that point they're good for nothing. Oddly enough at one point they're actually really good for doing wood grain painting.
I'm glad to hear it helps. I've been making tall tufts like this for years. I learned how by watching model railroaders and, of course, Mel from @TheTerrainTutor
Another great tutorial Lawrence! Could you do one in the future on terrain planning for wargaming or narrative boards? I'm a bit hung up on whether to do a roll up battle mat and scatter pieces or go full on foam board. I suppose even with a battle mat I'll need to think about what kind of scatter to use, how to make any structures for it and how to make it all "blend". Are there any tricks you use to judge the playability of your terrain? I'd love to hear your thoughts on the topic and what you think the pros and cons of each set up would be.
Honestly, I don't put that much planning or thought into it. I just have a general idea in my head and start crafting whatever I wanna make. It never turns out how I originally had it in my head but it turns out pretty good. I do use the same flocking and basing techniques on most of my stuff so it'll be consistent throughout. As far as playability, that depends. Do I want miniatures to be able to stand on it or not. Like with my blood fountain I wanted the miniature to be able to get to the top of it so I made sure the stairs were wide enough that they stand on each step.
you can buy deer hair for fly tieing in many colours and it works great for grass tufts
That's a really good idea. I'll have to remember it.
You are a real talent, my friend. This how-to video is well researched and very helpful. Thank you.
I just wanted to show the 3 methods that I 8sed the most
Sweet. I've got a box of chip brushes I'll never use for painting, this'll be a perfect use for those. Thanks!
Lol we've all got those brushes
Thanks. Great tips. Always waiting for your next vid.
Glad you like them!
Good tips Lawrence! These will come in handy for many a build.
Thanks. I've been making these for a long time. Finally, decided to make a video on making them since I need a bunch of them for my next build

Glad it was helpful! I also use old beater brushes for adding a "layered" effect to stone terrain after I add my homemade texture paste
This is brillaint thank you Lawrence! I was looking for some longer tuffs the other day so this will really help :)

Solid video.
Thank you
Nice tutorial 😊😊😊
Thank you! Cheers!
@@dirtybasementterrain you are welcome 🤗
Nice! I actually found something that can work well as tall dry grass, thatching, or haystacks!
I know of several ways to do this I just wanted to show the 3 ways that I use the most

Dude, thank you for the tip, but the stop and go music is distracting.
Thanks. Yeah I had to make alot of these so I figured share how I make them.
