So, I am in need of modeling supplies from everything from plastic card to green stuff to foam board. Does anyone know where I can find this stuff for pretty cheap and in bulk?

Plastic card can be found at most Hobby Stores that sell model railroad items.

Foam Board can be found at Michaels and sometimes at Wal Mart or Target. Staples should have it, but likely at higher cost.

As for green stuff, only places that usually carry it are wargame stores. You can find it online for fairly low cost. CMON sells it, as does thewarstore.com

As for the greenstuff. Buying the Games workshop is kind of a waste. The Commercial name for it is kneadatite. Gale force 9 sells it in 2 seperate tubes with alot in it. Also you can probably find a seller on ebay that sells the actual kneadatite rolls for about 20 USD with about 10x the amount the games workshop blister has in it.

Alright, I'll be sure to look for that. I'm guessing it could be gotten in a hardware store, correct?

Green stuff isn't sold at hardware stores. Btw, when you do buy it, make sure you are getting the tube that is 50/50 yellow and blue, and not the "tape" style ribbon that GW sells.

The ribbon ones have alot of contact with the other colors, and the result is little beads of already set putty screwing up your smooth lines and seams.

Antenociti's Workshop carries most hobby stuff, a huge range with decent shipping options. They are, however, UK-based.
