Plasticard

Your right, plasticard is just another word for those thin sheets of polystyrene model kits are made from.

I was looking at the TerraGenesis pages on terrain building (which by the way are great) when a question occured^([sic]) to me. What the heck is plasticard exactly and where do you get it? I mean, is plasticard one of those British (no disrespect intended) terms which us Americans can't understand (ie. PVA glue = Elmer's white glue)or am I just missing something very basic?

Plasticard is simply polystyrene plastic . . same stuff that is used in all those model cars and planes.

Two questions 1. Where is a good place to get plasticard and 2. what is the approximate price
