Well you could use Woodland scenics which is good and about 15 bux a bottle which is enough to make about 1000 small ponds.

If you only need a small bit then try mine Spectre Hobbies

And a good note is never ever use on straight foam both will eat it up.

PM me we can work out something

I don't think you should buy the Games Workshop one, because it is way too expensive, I would be buying it from a different brand like Woodland Scenics 8)

The rule of thumb is always to never buy any modelling equipment from GW. It's always available somewhere else in twice the size and half the price..

Yeah, I was tempted to buy a hobby knife for £15, but settled on my hobby Machete for £7.50...


:P

Don't forget though, GW's stuff is actually pretty good. They are just grossly overpriced and you can get equally good or better products from other suppliers for much less.

So if you are stuck and can't get any Woodland Scenics or similar, then you will get good results from the GW version if that's all you can find.

Alan's right, GW's stuff is fairly good, its just ridiculously overpriced. Come to think of it, that's the problem with all their products... :roll:
