The War Factory at http://www.architechnic.com/wf/index2.html  has some
unique ideas, including very cool plants. (check out the bamboo - that
has to be the most interesting plant model I've ever seen!)

Terragenesis is the best I've ever found; TG's Links section is pretty
comprehensive for other worthwhile scenery sites.

Very good sites, Karl. I've added your site, all the scenery sites from
your links page, and the DBM/DBA Terrain link into my Favorites. Vielen
Dank!! Sites des Nizzageld-Retters.
(I hope my German made sense. <smile>)

Anyone out there got more make-it-yourself scenery sites to add?

A couple of ideas I've had for terrain:

1. [FT] My wife bought some contact paper recently, it's a faux marble design,
black with white striations. My first thought at seeing it was "If I cut this
into odd shapes, and stick it to a backing, it'd make a great

Nebula/gas cloud terrain for Full Thrust."  My wife thinks I'm weird.

2. [DS] Along similar lines, I was thinking that patches of rough ground

could be recreated by cutting/tearing into odd shapes and then painting
pieces of sandpaper and/or roofing paper.
