Sorry haven’t been on this in a while: the seafoam is from gaugemaster, about 20 squid a box I believe, I have tried the WWS stuff, and it wasn’t as good, a lot of useless squashed bits I found, the fuller less squashed seafoam works best for nicer looking trees! I need to work on scribbing the bark next time.

Thanks for that. I haven't actually bought any from WWS! As you said the Gaugemaster sell it and it is good. My local model shop in Newton Abbot (Bekra...no connections..!) sells it for around £18 a box and it is good quality stuff.

Hey Rob, it was a while back I bought them, i think I just googled it, i will see if i can dig them out later on which nursery i bought them from, I do remember them being very cheap, and I got something like 500 so room for plenty of errors :)
