Bring Realistic Dry Grass to Your Scale Scenes

Model builders who want authentic ground cover will appreciate Tamiya's Diorama Texture Paint in Grass Effect Khaki. This water-based paste contains 5mm coloured fibres that emulate dry grass, giving depth and realism to dioramas and scale layouts.

Prep and Best Practices

For best results apply this texture over a prepared base such as Tamiya Diorama Texture Paint in soil effect (item 87108). The 100ml bottle covers roughly a B4 sheet with a single coat, so it suits both small dioramas and larger scenic panels.

Key Details and How to Use

  • Color: Khaki
  • Volume: 100ml
  • Application: Work with a spatula or an old brush to sculpt the paste
  • Mixing: Blend with other Tamiya acrylics to tweak shade
  • Cleaning: Water-based formula cleans up easily while wet

Do not load this product into an airbrush since the fibred paste can clog and damage equipment. The thicker, paste-like texture is designed for hand application and detailed texturing.

Layering and Weathering Options

After the base texture dries, add washes and dry-brushes with enamel or acrylic paints to introduce shadows, highlights, and weathering for a convincing finish.

Yes. It performs best on textured bases like soil effect (87108) but will adhere to most primed or sealed hobby substrates when the surface is clean.
Dry time depends on thickness and humidity, but thin layers can set in a few hours. Allow longer for thicker applications before applying washes or varnish.
A small metal spatula, palette knife, or an old stiff brush gives good control for sculpting fibres and creating varied terrain contours.
