Does anyone have a good source online for printable news papers/magazines/posters etc in 1:35 scale to use as general detritus in a diorama?

Just general rubbish really Woody, the stuff that accumulates in gutters and road side ditches. You know, chip packets, newspaper, plastic bottles, that sorta stuff.

Had a look for ETA models, looks like they are based in Greece and operate through a Facebook page. Does anyone know if they have an actual website?

I've been searching and found this mob.... https://duplicata-productions.myshopify.com/

Lots of useful stuff, even KFC containers 8-)

I can't vouch for their service, i only found while looking for you :P But it's free shipping and multiple item discounts. Maybe a small order to test them out?

So, order placed as of today, $US34 after discount for 7 sheets of stuff. A little pricey, but they do look good. I'll let you know how I get on.

Brilliant so far, got an email response 3hrs after placing order to say it has been dispatched as well as a picture of the usual postage envelope and details on timeframes for delivery by post from Canada. :D
