i need help to find some items for some terrain, i was looking for a mold of jersey barriers in 28mm scale or therabouts, i have already found a mold for bremer walls.

does anyone know where there are cheaper molds or at least ones that look more like this.

I want to know how to create shipping containers or at least a place i can find those paper print off glue together ones, also does anyone know a website where i can find various molds such as molds of barrels,crates,machinery pieces and various pieces that you would see on top of buildings like the pieces of machinery miniwargmer dave put ontop of his zombie police station.

ps. i wasnt really sure where to put this so if its in the wrong spot tell me.

You can get cardboard shipping container templates here:

Can't help with the concrete barrier walls or moulds for stuff - although I think hirst arts have some (they aren't cheap, but you are buying your own licence to make them as part of the price).

Anteociti's Workshop do a wide variety of SF scenery bits including quite modern looking J barriers.

This is where the elites of terrain making hang out

Jersey/K-rail barriers are a simple enough shape that I'd likely consider making a master and casting them up, myself. Since they could be done in plaster, just about any old material could be used to make the mold, even the cheap mold putties sold in craft stores for making soap (especially since plaster would allow you to vary and weather the surface easily, obviating the need for crisp detail retention in the molding material).

The website chromedog linked has a decent bit of paper terrain. The only stuff I've personally used (beyond templates) came from http://combatstorm.com/download.html. I actually used the printouts as a skin over plasticard forms, just to make the pieces (dumpsters and shipping containers are all that I used) more robust, and it's worked rather well.

As for the assorted other bits you're looking for, I can't think of a mold source beyond Hirst Arts. Depending on how much you need, it might actually be cheaper to buy ready-made pieces. There's quite a few detail pieces like those produced for model train layouts.
