Prep work for homemade fake grass

A humble kitchen strainer became a sawdust sifter.

After some online research I came to decide I wanted to try making some fake grass from sawdust mixed with paint. I got the sawdust for free by asking nicely for it at a local hardware store. And I had green paint laying around 🤷‍♂️

Other options would have included buying premade grass or making grass out of shredded foam. All of which seemed to involve harder to come by materials than sawdust. And yet all of them allegedly hold up to rough play better than sawdust 🤷‍♂️

I figure as a noob let me start cheap and dirty.

I thought that too many of the sawdust bits I got would be too big so I sifted out a bunch of fine sawdust to turn to grass.

Fine grains on the right, chaff on the left that I still have because maybe I will find a use for it…? Warhammer is a hoarder safe space right guys?

Next is to mix up the paint and dust.
