Army Painter tufts are small patches of synthetic grass or vegetation that simulate natural ground cover. They come pre-shaped and ready to apply directly to miniature bases or terrain pieces. These tufts are used to add a final touch of realism and detail to your hobby projects, making environments feel more complete and immersive.

Yes. Each tuft comes with a small amount of adhesive on the base, allowing for quick and easy placement. For more secure attachment, especially on painted or textured surfaces, it’s recommended to apply a small drop of super glue or PVA before positioning the tuft. This ensures long-term adhesion during handling or gameplay.

Army Painter offers a wide range of tuft styles including Highland, Wasteland, Swamp, Jungle, Winter, Frozen, Mountain, and more. Each variety is designed to match different environments and themes, from lush forests and grassy plains to snow-covered fields and scorched battle zones. Tufts also come in several sizes and shapes for added versatility.

Using tweezers, gently lift the tuft from the backing sheet and press it onto your model’s base. If extra hold is needed, add a dab of glue before pressing down. Tufts can be used on their own or in combination with sand, rocks, paint, and other basing materials to build rich, multi-layered scenic effects.

Yes. Tufts can be trimmed with hobby scissors or tweezers to create custom shapes, reduce size, or better fit uneven terrain. You can also split them apart or layer multiple tufts for varied density and texture. This allows for a more natural appearance when building custom diorama landscapes or blending tufts into existing basing materials.

Absolutely. Tufts work well alongside sand, gravel, cork, static grass, snow effects, texture paint, and other basing supplies. They’re often used as a finishing touch to complement textured ground or fill in open spaces. Layering different basing elements helps create a realistic, natural feel across your models or terrain boards.

Army Painter tufts are suitable for nearly any tabletop game or model scale. They're used in fantasy games, historical wargaming, sci-fi systems, dioramas, and RPG miniatures. Whether you're basing a Warhammer army, decorating bolt-action troops, or adding flair to a Dungeons & Dragons character, tufts add depth and setting-appropriate detail to any project.
