Looking for plants for a hydroponics section gone wild
« on: 16 April 2011, 09:05:57 AM »
The next major part of my Space Hulk set (using Hirst Arts blocks) will be a hydroponics section gone wild. In preparation for that I'm searching for various weird plants and stuff. I've already looked into using plastic aquarium plants, Woodland Scenics foliage and making my own mushrooms from greenstuff. But what else is available?

I just saw a notice at Tabletop Gaming News about the mushrooms from Fiendish Fabrications, and they look fabulous, but they are a little too big, as the hulk walls are just 4 cm tall. Or it may look cool with 11 cm mushrooms towering over the humans... :-)

But that's basically what I'm looking for - weird otherworldly plants, ready for painting and planting! Also any detail parts looking like they could belong in a hydroponics section. Any suggestions?

Exactly the kind I'm looking for! Thanks!

Any other plants you guys know of, or even tutorials for making your own plants?

Stole my thunder.  When I read this post I immediately thought of the melted drinking straw alien plants.
