Re: [SGII] Modular Starship Terrain Was Con events Re: images from space

Funny you should mention Sci-Fi Supply (again).

I sent them several emails, no reply.  I called a couple local suppliers
and 
I have had zero luck getting my hands on thier "Wild Walls" series
(which 
would be perfect IMO).

I was ready to buy about two dozen sets of these walls and glue them to
foam 
core board.  They are priced right and look pretty good IMO.  But, alas
it 
was not to be...

BTW their web site is at:
