IMHO it's horrible, what I always do is this. Go on anet and find a pic with grass of the airport where you took the shot.
Take it into PS and crop out the grass.
Unlock that layer and drag the grass into your shot.

Use Image>Transform>Disort to make it fit well.

There you go Cheesy

I managed to make it look like this:

Hope I helped Wink

I tried to do that, both attempts look a whole lot better than the green porridge I came up with, lol Cheesy

Still not 100% though, Mees' looks like real grass but is sharply cut off, and Ravang's 2nd looks lumpier, like it should... but not like real grass.

Any other contributions to this thread would be welcome... then we can all learn how to do grass...

~~and then progress onto shooting smack~~

If you're bored of an evening - and you'll have to be - you can check out my screenshot gallery: Kriglsflightsimscreens...HERE
