What or where do people get decent basing supplies from? I've looked around (mainly ebay) but just keep seeing the same old stuff :/. Recently bought some army painter poison ivy from ebay and it looked nothing like the picture displayed :/.

You sure it was the right item sent?

For the basics
Sand you can get anywhere
Wood glue

Everything else
Various plastic card from places like evergreen
Dental plaster broken into small chunks for concrete
Birch Seed pods for Leafs
Various wood bits
Bark for rocks

Edit: Aww man how did i forget the cork.......

For my urban bases, I followed this process:
Thin cork board for large rocks
A mixture of sand, PVA, plaster of paris, cut up rocks, train gravel, and cut-up chicken wire.
And if desired, a little bit of water effects.
It creates a pretty hectic base with lots of spots to add some color.

I will post some pictures when I finish the current set for my tyrant guard.
