Any suggestions on length or make of static grass that would work for 6mm? I am thinking 2mm length, this stuff: link Or this stuff: link Anyone have any experience they can share? Thanks! |

Thanks, I should have ordered some with my last batch of troops but neglected to. Looking for something I can get here in the US so I can start basing by the end of next week. |

2 or 3mm is the best size and try to get colours that aren't too glaring – bright, grassy greens look fine on larger figures but overpower 6mm. |

In my experience the length of the grass doesn't matter too much. 2mm-4mm all looks about the same when it's on the bases. As well, grass naturally grows quite tall. |

I ordered 2mm from a vendor in the US and I really like it. He has three different sizes of grass patches attached to glue dots. Have to use tweezers to apply them though. I usually use Gale Force 9 static grass and can't say I have disliked the effect, but it is clearly longer. |

I used the 2mm and it looked fine. I did use it on larger bases(60 x 60) and only in clumps though (not covering the entire base) |
