Not long after I posted up my Pet Store terrain find back in December, Marouda, Pyro and Orez took a detour to the Pet Warhouse where I got that first one after grabbing something to eat. Orez came inside with me, and we took a look at what was on offer.
I’ll tell the more interesting story with the next post on this stuff, but I managed to pick up a few pieces again as they had a pre-Christmas sale going. I thought this was a nice, impressively-sized piece of terrain that allows for gameplay in, around, and even over the top of it. It’ll go well with yesterday’s Shardwrack Spines.
I really need to get a few more mats, as my only desert mat is this one. The texture is nice, but it’s also very plain.
I intended to post this up before Christmas, but after all the bullshit that December brought, I’m showing this piece now in January. While it does fit the month’s theme it doesn’t count as something that I’ve done as this is untouched, and as bought. Even though this is a desert-ey bluff, I’m actually quite happy to leave the plants completely as-is, as they add a nice bit of interest and colour depth to the piece, and makes it a bit Oasis-ey. Wonderwalls and Pet Barns FTW!

Another great pet store find, I find with the plastic plant you can tone them down with washes, but as a gaming piece looks great as is

Absolutely right, though I do like the brightness on them.

I never seem to find good pieces like that when “shopping” the local pet stores, nice find!

Cheers mate. This was one of those huge Pet Warehouses, so that probably makes a big difference.

Good find! I like the bits of vegetation, too. Really, very few deserts are without some sort of vegetation. Life finds a way pretty much anywhere.

True. They might be a bit big and green for some (as opposed to a few tufts), but they work for me.

Nice find- even better that it is table ready too.

That’s a very nice find. Not sure if there’s been a Pet Shop Boys joke yet, but it’s bound to be absolutely fabulous.

Looks like I need to get down to a pet store! I could definitely use some more desert-themed terrain.

I got these and the others that I have shown so far ( and the ones I haven’t had a chance to photograph or post yet) from a pet warehouse place called Best Friends. If you have one of those anywhere near u there’s a good chance you could find the exact same terrain since I’m sure they all order it in bulk from China or wherever. 👍

Thanks I’ll check. Pet Barn is the nearest one to me, maybe that is what they are called in Queensland

Pet Barn is a similar place, and they’d probably have some stuff as well. 🙂
