Hi Dan the grass starts out as a base of 2mm Noch summer blend, Then I blend noch 6mm straw with miniatur 4.5mm spring and summer green and build that up in layers.Comparing what you’ve done with the view through the window, the colouring is spot-on!

Should there be some sort of tie bar to set the gauge on those concrete pot sleepers? I’m only really familiar with the GWR version, but it’s a feature of all the other variants I’ve seen details of.

I do that as well using an old sock to capture all the loose fibres, last year I upgraded to a WWS pro applicator and that is much better at making the fibres stand up. I use the cheap Chinese applicator for covering large areas of base grass.I use a vacuum cleaner to help lift the grass upright, just hover the nozzle of the vacuum cleaner a couple of inches above the freshly
laid surface . Oh and I put one of the wife’s stockings over the nozzle to collect any loose fibres for future use.

I will have it with me next week for an in person closer lookSteve, having looked at these photos, I'm quite pleased I missed seeing it last week. I believe that by studying the smaller image I'm getting far more details coming out at me. Never quite appreciated it like this!
