[moonrise]

hey guys me again. i was wondering if anyone can point me to a good manufacturer/ online store where i can get some nice foliage/flock/leaf scatter at reasonable prices? i've got a couple of shops in mind but i've never ordered from them so i'm still pretty skeptical :s any help will be greatly appreciated.

thanks!

The War Store stocks some Woodland Scenics stuff:

The War Store is great; never had any problems with them and Woodland Scenics seems to be a bit of a staple for a lot of people when it comes to basing.

Skullcrafts has some pretty nice stuff as well:

Antenociti's Workshop also does some pretty cool stuff:

Haven't ever dealt with with either SC or Ant's, but I've heard really good things about them.

Antenociti's is one of the best places around for this sort of things, in my experience. Have bought from them many times. They have so much stuff under the same roof. And they are helpful and experienced. They know what they're selling.

Skullcraft's has a decent selection, and not to shabby on prices either. They ship pretty quick, and are based in the US. Atenociti's I've never used But from thse european folks here he's a good sort. So it really depends on where you're at.

I'd third the Skullcrafts shop. Get yourself a basing kit and you will be set with just about everything you need to do most things. I bought one over a year ago, its still going strong. I'd have to say its one of my best purchases in this hobby to date. I find myself using the texture paste a lot and it works great for everything!
James is a great guy and gives you your moneys worth, check it out.

Ditto what he said... I place a sizable order last year that I am still using.

Soo thirded. Antenociti's ships fast with good product and very good shipping costs. I'm US based and I prefer to order from there rather than Skullcrafts. Not to mention they have way more stuff to add to orders.

I can highly recommend both Antenociti & Skullcrafts. Both have a wide range of product and ship very quickly (US based and order arrived rapidly from both).

@Jess
Antenociti's are UK based.

Sorry - should have clarified - I'm in the US and Antenociti had a package to me in a week (even though they're in the UK).

checked them out :) seems like i've gotta choose one, then hehehe. thanks!

i really like the antenociti leaf scatter, but something suddenly held me back: it says that they may not be able to pass through customs of countries where it is prohibited to introduce foreign/ potentially foreign species of plants or whatsoever.

and since i don't know if it's the same case in the philippines, it's a gamble to buy such products then :s

man i hate my country -_-'...

still. i'll try then. nyehehehehe

This site (http://www.scenicexpress.com/) has some stuff I think is freakin' awesome. The Silfor Buffalo grass tufts are such a neat alternative to standard static grass. (Admittedly I haven't used them on one of my own minis yet, but the last few I've minis I've done have had non-outdoors bases. I hope to finish one and use these on it in the next week or so.) Every time I look at their site they have new cool things I'd love to buy. The main problem with it is you're buying in model train volumes rather than mini painter volumes.

For scenery thingys, at least here in the USA, you can't beat www.walthers.com (http://www.walthers.com) . They are THE Model Railroad supplier, & carry a VAST amount of useful scenicing materials. PLUS, they're VERY nice folks to deal with. :fing02:
