There are comic shops, but they only sale GW scenary.

We have JoAnns and Michaels, but thier trees and super exspesive. Looking more for low detail 4-6 inches tall type stuff. I went online, but only can find super detail trees for train stuff.

umm.... if you ar a big terrain builder buy the GW how to build terrain book.... about 1/16 of it
all i know how to explain quickly is bamboo forests...
get some bamboo squewers.... then paint them dark green then add woodland scenics bush stuff to the top...

I was just thinking about cutting a shape of foam and adding a tree in every corner. something cheap and something that models can actaully stand in. Thanks for the help though.

Getting a lot of use out of this picture today...



Those trees I picked up from the "Christmas Village" scenery line from Lowe's during an after-Christmas sale. There's 21 pine trees of varying sizes in the bag and you get the bag normally for $11 or so. Since it was Christmas Closeout, I got it at 75% off so I think it was something like $3 for 21 trees. Needless to say I picked up 6 bags of them and have as many pine trees as a man can desire. Only trick is that they were snow-frosted, which is fine for a snow board, but I ended up brushing on a lighter green to get them how I wanted.

That's the cheapest I've ever come across, although you'll have to wait a few months to grab them, unless maybe they can be gotten online during the off-season?
