I've been a lot of building trees lately and have run out of medium green Superleaf flocking material.  Scenic Express, it's main supplier, appears to be out of stock with no indication about when it will be back in stock.  Other dealers and Ebay are also out of stock.  

Does anyone know when it might be available again?  Is there is an alternative medium green leaf material?  Thanks.

Are you prepared to look at some European based options?

Hi Nevin, 

There are other suppliers based out of Europe that should have some US-based distributors/retail outlets

One is the Noch range -  https://www.noch.com/model-leaves

Faller also does a range of foliage materials. 

Gaugemaster out of the UK also has a range of foliage materials.

There are others out there, perhaps others can point you to some of the other suppliers? 

Regards,

Thanks for the suggestion

I did fine some Noch foliage in medium green and ordered it.  We'll see how it compares to the Superleaf stuff.  

I wonder that will all of the out of stock notices for European scenery materials (try finding Matin Welberg stuff) if this is related to COVID or the supply chain problem.

Superleaf Shortage

You can always make your own. I use ground up herbs that are dyed to the colors I like and flock my vegetation that way. With a small spice/coffee grinder and some cheap strainers/sieves you can make most of your own scenic supplies.
