I bought two packets of GW's Mordheim Turf to base my Zulu Regiments with as I like the light colour of these Tuffs. When I went to check the result of my basing I discovered that the medium (glue) which GW has used is not transparent and is really obvious. Is there a product which matches these, as I am really annoyed by this? |

I think some of the Army Painter tuft grass might be useful. |

I also like the Army Painter tufts. They look good with both 28mm and 54mm models. link |

You can always make your own using static grass and white glue on wax paper. |

Thanks, I have used Army Painter tufts on both my 28mm Vietnam and Robin Hood projects. I really want to use a lighter looking Tuft similar to the GW supplied one, but am unable to work out from the photos which ones would look similar in colour. So I am guessing that the answer to my question is No? (Sorry feeling a bit grumpy this morning) |

I ripped all the tuffs of the bases as they never looked like they were glued down at all. I wonder if GW would give me my money back? |

I've not tried it myself, but I've read previous posts where people have painted and drybrushed the tufts to help them transition / blend in with their basing and static grass. |
