I'm looking for lots of fairly dense jungle terrain for my table, anyone know any good sources? Obviously, eBay and "my local pet store" are not what I'm looking for, already tried those (either too expensive or bad terrain). Anyone know any specific places?

Peru? South America?

I don't know how your budget is, but are the jungle tree kits GW has still available, and would that be a decent alternative for you?

Hi, Sovereign-

Try your local craft store.

I live in New England, and up here, Michael's sells a six-foot-long chain of miniature plastic plants, every inch of it suitable for 40K terrain, for around four bucks. Buy one or two of these, cut them apart into individual plants, glue 'em on some bases, and you're in business.

They have lots of other good scenery stuff, so when you are in the store, do a thorough recon...there's colored sand, bags of small rocks, styrofoam shapes, and a ton of other stuff that's useful for terrain. They also sell a tools, glue guns, glue (Alene's craft glue if fantastic for scenery), and lots of other very handy stuff. I often grab their big bag of brushes for five bucks...they're not suitable for precision painting, but perfect for drybrushing and scenery.

Good luck!

I agree. Your local craft store is your friend for things like this. Greater variety and cheaper to boot.

Great, thanks for the help guys. I'd heard Michaels is good. What section are the trees in?

One of the best places for jungle terrain is any fish store or aquarium. The fake plants for aquariums that you can get there work great and are pretty inexpensive.
