Awesome tutorial for intermediates man. Once you've got the basics of gluing and sealing down it can be a bit intimidating to know where to go from there when you first start but this pretty much covers what you should be trying next. And if you are a newbie, remember you can test this stuff on a scrap 6" square of foam first to try out the methods if it makes you feel more comfortable :) That way you feel more like you know what you're doing before you touch the precious project 😅

Hi Luke, great video! I would really love it if you could talk about the whole deal with the alligator clip, where it should touch, whether we're talking about a live current or if it's just doing something with static electricity, etc. Why do some terrain modellers' videos seem to show them touching the clip near the grass but without a wet glue area seeming to exist between the clip and where the grass is standing up? Are they using a metal plate underneath or something? On larger boards, it rarely looks like they've drenched the entire area in wet glue, and yet the grass still seems to stand up. I think a lot of video tutors seem to take this part for granted, so I see almost everyone just glossing over this aspect of applying static grass. Would love a bit more of a deep dive on it. Cheers!

I have a question: I recently got into the hobby of mini RC crawlers. So I decided to make an indoor course to crawl on. My first design was made of cardboard covered with paper-mache and it actually does the job. However, I stumbled upon the art of dioramas and landscape modelling and I fell in love. Now I have decided to try to make a diorama/crawler course out of gypsum plaster, sand, pebbles and so on. TL;DR - Provided I seal the surfacing and flocking with a lot of glue (got lots of clear PVA) would it survive driving an RC on top of it for some considerable time or would it get destroyed immediately?
