Are there any vendors that sell flat printed cloth or neoprene pieces of terrain that fit a 3mm or 6mm miniature scale? I am wondering if there is something a little more fancy that I can use for forest and town terrain other than green and grey pieces of felt. |

I use Monopoly houses in 3mm |

Zookie, For your forests use various coloured clump foliage on the felt or card. They look quite good at that scale |

For my 2mm stuff I use either small 6mm trees or cut up bits of pan scrub for woods. Towns are either proper 2mm buildings or Command and Colours blocks (they make excellent BUAs for WW3 type games). I just use my normal ground cloths, fields, hills etc for everything else. |

If you really want 3D you can buy stuff like that on Wargame Vault and print at your desired scale. Alternmatively, look for cheap board games on Ebay and cut up the maps. |

I use Brigade building models that I get from Pico. They are smaller than 3mm, but they look good glued to a base to denote built up areas. You can get sets of these little buildings in all kinds of styles, English, Europe, Med, farm, urban, etc. Not too expensive and give a nice look. 3D but nice to look at. I always use clump foliage for 3mm forest/trees, just glue it to a base, or use it loose. 6mm is a different story, so many options. It depends on how much time and money you want to spend on this stuff. |
