MOSS Yellow

Moss Yellow from AMMO of Mig Jimenez

Bulky vegetation for a diorama in a yellow shade. The material is used where flat static grass would not be enough: for bushes, scrub, tree crowns and growth that spreads over walls, fences or abandoned equipment. The yellow color suits late summer, autumn and dry, parched scenes, where it works as a light counterpoint to the earthy tones of the terrain.

Use

• Bushes and low scrub as separate objects in a scene
• Tree crowns on your own armature of wire or a natural twig
• Dry, tall growth on field margins and in ditches
• Overgrown masonry, ruins and parked equipment

Work tips

Separate pieces by tearing rather than with a knife; a torn edge has an irregular outline that looks natural in a scene. Build up several small clumps rather than one large one, as a bush never has a uniform shape. Anchor them to the surface with super glue, or on porous terrain with PVA glue. Taller clumps hold more firmly if you push a piece of wire into them from below and set that into the base. If you lightly spray a clump with atomized glue after gluing and sprinkle it with fine foliage, it gains depth and stops looking like a flat patch. The shade can be tuned with a very thin paint applied briefly from a greater distance.

Who the accessory is for

For builders of dioramas and vignettes who need to fill an area with bulky vegetation quickly and convincingly. Even a beginner can handle it, because the work is not about exact shapes but about the irregularity that is natural to vegetation.

A scenic accessory for making vegetation. Glue, paints and a base are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
