About product

What the foliage is for

Foam granulate is the basic raw material of greenery on a diorama. In itself it represents nothing; only once it is sprinkled onto a tree armature or onto a terrain surface does it form leaf mass with an irregular edge that does not look like a merged area. The dark green tone corresponds to leaves in shade and in the depth of a crown, which is why it suits a bottom layer onto which paler green is then lightly sprinkled. That creates the depth a single green color never gives.

A coarser grain and what to do with it

The qualifier in the name indicates a coarser grain. A larger grain holds its shape and is visible individually, so it suits tree crowns, bushes, scrub by a road and growth that is to read as varied from a distance. For closely cut grass or fine moss a coarse grain is too pronounced; there, reach for a finer grain.

How to work with the granulate

First coat the area or the twigs with glue, most often white PVA thinned with water, and sprinkle the granulate onto them from above between your fingers or through a sieve. Let it dry thoroughly and only then turn the diorama over and tap the excess out onto paper; the granulate collected can be used again. You will manage the color shading by sprinkling a second shade onto the lit sides of a crown only. Work over a mat, as a fine grain runs all over the table.

Terms of supply

The granulate alone is supplied. The glue, tree armatures, a base and tools are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Tree crowns, bushes and varied growth, where the individual grain is meant to show. For short grass or moss a coarse grain is too pronounced.

Most often with white PVA glue thinned with water. Coat the area with glue, sprinkle the granulate on from above and let it dry thoroughly.

You do not. Dark green serves well as a bottom layer, and a paler tone sprinkled onto the lit sides of a crown only will give the greenery depth.

Yes. Once the glue has dried, turn the model over paper, tap the excess out and return it to the bag.
