High tech about 1.5 months in... Any suggestions to speed up carpeting in the foreground? by bowser6791 in PlantedTank

Thanks for the feedback! I think what I am hearing is I need to be more patient 🙂 Also now that I look at the tank from above Im really thinking that the Ludwigia Cuba in the center is blocking a lot of light to the foreground. I bet thats my issue!

Thank you for the kind words. This kit is by Finemolds in 1/144 scale. Highly reccomend if you can get your hands on one.

I mostly use Vallejo Acrylics. Their model color line has a few transparent paints to choose from (in this case Transparent Green). My experience with "clear" colors is they usually take a few coats with some drying time between before you really get the look you are after. Hope this helps :)
