FS628: Static Grass – 12mm Straw
Bring a sense of rugged, seasonal realism to your landscape with Woodland Scenics FS628 Static Grass. This 12mm "Straw" fiber is the tallest dormant-colored fiber in the Field System™, engineered to replicate towering golden weeds and parched summer brush. At nearly half an inch tall, FS628 is the perfect choice for creating high-impact visual depth and the unmanaged look of nature reclaiming the land.
Key Features for Autumnal & Wild Scenery
Massive 12mm Height: The ultimate tool for modeling tall, dried weeds in HO scale or dense, golden thickets in O and G scales.
Authentic Straw Tone: A warm, golden-tan hue that captures the look of vegetation that has gone to seed or turned dormant due to late-summer heat or autumn frost.
Engineered for the Static King®: These extra-long fibers are optimized to hold a high static charge, ensuring they stand bolt upright to create a convincing 3D "forest" of grass.
Realistic Micro-Shadows: The 12mm length allows for dramatic light interaction, casting long shadows that give your terrain a photographic, lifelike quality.
Versatile Layering: Ideal for creating individual tufts of dead grass or dense patches of "sun-scorched" growth along railroad sidings and rural fence lines.
Mastering the "Overgrown" Look
Abandoned Industrial Sites: Apply FS628 around rusted machinery, old factory walls, or unused tracks to simulate years of neglected, wild growth.
Highlighting Greenery: Use the 12mm Straw as a highlight over a 4mm or 7mm green base layer. This mimics the natural "die-back" often seen at the tips of tall wild grass.
Winter Pastures: Create an entire dormant field by mixing FS628 with 7mm Straw (FS624) for a varied, "clumpy" look that represents a pasture in mid-winter.
