While taking stock of my grass tufts this morning, it was evident that I only had enough to sparsely plant the paddies, and one unit would have to be done with mixed colours. Oh well, I suppose the mixed tufts could represent plants of varying age, or some that have already been harvested.
I mixed a light brown craft paint with AK still water effects for the paddy water. The pour itself was easy enough, but the acrylic effect seems to be wicking up the tufts, which I had not foreseen. I’ll give them a day or two to dry and report back.
