I've been experimenting with different colors of flock and paint. I've tried several different brands of spray paint. I really like the way the "Suede" paint from Krylon came out. The result reminds me of "Sticka-Bushes" that we played around as kids. If you fell into them them you would be picking thorns or stickers out of your body all day. Sometimes they would bear red berries, so I've tried that, also.

I knocked these out last night.
 
I must admit to getting smart in my old age, as I now write the color and grade of the flock and the paint specifics, on the underside of the craft stick in magic marker. I'm learning!
 
Anyone care for a particular model? Reason why?

Except for the red ones…
They look like the briar patch!
Or zeriba for Sudan gaming.

The wilder looking the better.

These are amazing. Thank you for the inspiration. I'm using your tutorial to copy your work. Would you share the "formula" for the green ones on the left side of the top picture? Apparently it can be found on the bottom of the stick…brilliant by the way.

The most green set. I can look out my back window, at the half acre of unusable blackberry thicket there, and I see exactly what you have duplicated!

I'm going to remove some of the red. I way overdid it on them.
