Hey guys, I cant seem to find a hobby store that sells anything remotely like this here. I specifically am looking at the green vine looking foliage.

 

Does anyone know where to get this or something remotely similar?

Model railway stores sell that kind of stuff by the bag. Here is one example. Plenty of others area avilable.

Sanguinius stood up, stretching his wings to their full extent. He flexed his hands. "I need no blade".
It was as though Sanguinius gleamed with pale light, his face white, eyes becoming blood-red, surrounded by the golden crown of flowing hair. Guilliman had witnessed glimpses of of his brother's wrath before, but had never seen the true Blood Angel unleashed. Sanguinius surged forward on alabaster wings, half a meter from the floor, whiteness streaming from him like flames.

That's exactly what I was after, I couldn't find a webstore that advertised that here in Australia.

 

How is it to work with? How do you glue it? Is it cuttable with scissors or whatever to divide the bushes?

It is made of rubber so it very easy to cut. It can be glued with PVA (white school glue). Don't use plastic cement on it or it will melt.

You might look at hobby/arts and crafts stores. The big ones here in the U.S.A. are Hobby Lobby and Michael's, but there are any number of smaller stores. I'm not sure what the Australian counterparts might be.

Hey guys, I cant seem to find a hobby store that sells anything remotely like this here. I specifically am looking at the green vine looking foliage.

That looks a lot like lichen (or an artificial product imitating it).  Some of the model train companies, like Javis and Woodland Scenics sell packs of it.

 

I couldn't find a webstore that advertised that here in Australia.

Probably the most likely stockists are model train shops. smile.png  A quick google suggests there's a few retailers in Australia selling it. smile.png

Cheers, I did google before I asked, I didn't know what it was called to google in the first place ;)

 

I was already looking on modelling sites. But if I don't know what I'm looking for, I won't see it even if its right in front of my nose.

 

Thanks for the help though guys!

Oh, indeed - actually knowing the name of the thing you're searching for is probably 95% of the problem smile.png (apologies if I came off as "just Google it" - I honestly wasn't intending that!)

Reskin, I’d wager it’s Woodland Scenics Lichen or a close approximation of it.

IIRC, The Combat Company (NSW) and MightyApe (NSW) both stock it, are reliable and ship fast.

Failing that, try Metro Hobbies.
