A Challenge: Designing A new modular layout section

[torikoos]

A bit more, after the first grasses were glued down earlier this week, I've continued with another colour and length, as well as adding ground foam to represent small bushes in the area.
I've added: T63 ligth green coarse turf, by Woodland Scenics
Heki summer wild grass, number 1842, which comes on sheets with backing paper to peel off.
The first shade and longer length was Heki 1574, which comes in matts to cut or tear, and is much more irregular therefore. On it's own I find it a bit 'too much' , but mixing it now with others it starts to blend in better.

I always knew that blending and mixing gives better results, but after seeing some examples here on Big Blue and elsewhere (for example Jon Grant's Sweet home Alabama), I knew that blending colour and texture is the only way forward for realistic scenery.

I'm not done yet, there's more to add and blend, but I'm starting to like how it is appearing.
Here's a picture:
