I have at my command an entire battle group of the Imperial Guard. Fifty regiments, including specialised drop troops, stealthers, mechanised formations, armoured companies, combat engineers and mobile artillery. Over half a million fighting men and thirty thousand tanks and artillery pieces are mine to command. Emperor show mercy to the fool that stands against me, for I shall not.

No matter where you live in the world its not that hard to find polystyrene or plasticard. They are common materials.

Plasticard is sheets of styrene plastic. Google to find some local plastic workshop or company that produce signs or other products made out of plastic. Send them an email and Im sure theyre able to get you some 0.5 and 1mm sheets of styrene. Youll probably get a big sheet real cheap. Just remember to not call it plasticard. Few people know what that is while everyone in the industry knows what styrene is.

Then the pink polystyrene. The color doesnt matter and it might be called something else in your area (styrofoam, jackofoam etc) Its an insulation material used for cellars, waterpipes etc. Your local builders supplier will definately have it.
