Hi, I'm trying to add some new scenery to my board and I'm looking for good hills. I'm hard-pressed to paint all my models as it is, so I'd like to find some pre-made, pre-painted, pre-flocked hills. I already own some old GW hills (see HERE) but they're not sold anymore and I can't find any on the web. I've also looked at Ziterdes, but their hills are small and very expansive, so... What are the other options? |

Its been a while since I checked, but doesn't GW still sell the plastic modular hills from BoFA? Granted, they're not pre painted and flocked, but compared to making a hill from scratch, this should be doable in a reasonable ammount of time. |

I will buy those if I can't find anything else, but I'd much rather have premade hills... |

 Amera make good alternatives. But perhaps stay clear of their hills and look at the more modeled variants, as the one above. F205 Moorland Hillock. But yeah, spray and flock. |

These look really good! Too bad about the flocking thing, though... but they're tempting, for sure. They're cheap, too. How solid are they? That plastic looks really thin and fragile. |

Weeeell... Do you intend to place your pint on them, or play Epic with them? It's vacuum-formed ABS, it's fairly durable and doesn't shred. And here's the four I've made so far: |

OK, I'm sold, unless somebody comes up with a better option.  Thanks! |

I'm currently working on the GW hills right now. They're very nice. I should be posting up some completed pics sometime this week in my terrain thread. |
