Model Scene Grass Mats for Dioramas; Still Water

[Guest]

I have just discovered some astonishingly lifelike grass mats for dioramas:

14 Euros each, several types.

They are flexible and the bits don't fall off. I expect you could join two together by cutting a curved join line round the tufts. I reckon making convincing grassy-ness from scratch is very difficult. (I haven't bought any, just looked.)

I also discovered a tutorial on making still water (like for a canal or a pond) using Vallejo "Still Water":
