Static Grass

It looks to me like you have too much flock down. 

I apply a coating of ground foam then a light to medium coating of static grass mixing colors and lengths that way I don't have to put down such a thick layer of static grass which usually falls over under it's own weight.  I always wave my home made grassenator right over the flock before I'm finished to make sure every strand possible is standing up straight.  Here's a pic.....

for near the tacks I would use 6 mm and mix in slightly different colored tuffs.  After you are finished go over with static grass gun again with no grass in it.

Paul and WSDIMENNA,

Thank you very much for the replies, I apologize about the delay in getting back to you, sadly I must continue to work in order to supply my train addiction!  Your suggestions are great, and I plan on trying them this weekend.  I have different shades of the flock and plenty of different types of ground foam, so I will take some pictures once I redo this area and post them online.  I already go back over the area with an empty static applicator to try and get as much of the grass standing up.  I'll let you know when I post the pics so you can compare and hopefully see a great improvement!  Thanks again!
