If you've had trouble painting grass, this video may be just what you need. I was terrible at grass and usually ended up painting grass that looked like mud. No detail and just blobs of highlight color. The trick I show you in this video will correct that problem.

  • tapping off the excess was exactly what i was missing. thankyou!

  • @dbca33 Awesome. Glad I could help.

  • Got a tip on where to get a good brush for this? The art stores here don't really sell a brush like that.

  • @SBPStudio Contact me here on YouTube about this. I know where you can get them.

  • I think the muddy parts looks like grass too :)

  • Sometimes muddy parts look like grass. But if you "dry out" the brush a little, you get a lot more detail. Sometimes if I'm making close up tall grass, I'll have a little more paint in the brush and make the bristles bend upward. It creates a really good impression of tall grass and weeds, but you need plenty of paint to make it work.

  • Woah! I have been at this learning plateau with grassy areas for the longest time. And you showed me the way and now I no longer have those issues. I can't believe it, now time to go paint. THANKS!
