Cactus

[banshee]

Does anybody know where I might find model Cacti in a suitable scale? I've looked through the terrain websites suggested elsewhere on the forums to no avail.

I'm in the process of scratch building some wild west buildings and would really like to add scatter terrain in the form of Cacti, Tumbleweed etc. UK suppliers would be better (cheaper) but needs must and all....

Cheers in advance for your ideas.

You could use real Cacti, but small ones.

It looks great, I've seen it done.. though the GW store manager gets in trouble when their Regional notices. It also stops people leaning on the board.

On a serious note, try something like the Early Learning Center. I'm sure they will have packs of cowboy plastics for kids that will have Cacti in.

A quick searc turned these options up:

Take note, I do not know the company, so can't tell you if they are good or not. 2" might be a little tall, but you may be able to cut it down. Only one version is the bigger problem. The Dollar store would also be a great place to look.

I actually used some Woodland Scenic's cacti to make some Malifaux terrain. Here are a couple of pictures of what I came up with...Guild stuff added for scale:





Made the bases out of some spare GW vehicle flight bases, some pumice, and some slate rock.

Thanks to everyone for your really helpful responses. I was concerned about scale, but looking at the images of the woodland scenics models, I'm going to order a few packs of those ones. They look fantastic.

Wow these are awesome!
Where is the skull on the big base from?
