I use and am super happy with [Foxsmart Natural PLA](http://thefoxsmart.com/shop/pla-filament-2/). Their filament has good quality control, and it's *cheap* at $16/roll and flat rate shipping of (IIRC) $5 regardless of order size. I generally use clear, because I find it easier to tell if I got good coverage with my primer, because I can hold it up to a light and see if there are gaps in the coverage. Black and White both also work, though with black, you will need to be careful that your primer fully coverd it, because the filament is glossy. Turns out, glossy shadows don't look good.
#### Primer
I use [Krylon Fusion](http://amzn.to/2BQGykD) Black Camo paint. This stuff is amazing, SUPER flat, goes on in thin, even coats. Hell, I use it to prime my miniatures these days. I find it at my local Ace Hardware for about $5 a can. Tabletop Minions has a [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5Re9jTuWPk) covering all the reasons I love this paint.

For wooden pieces I'll use the [Brown Camo Krylon Fusion](http://amzn.to/2Et5nEm)
If you can't find the krylon fusion paints, before I used it, I was reasonably happy with [Rustoleum Painter's Touch](http://amzn.to/2shNsvn) Flat Black, which you can get at places like Lowes or Home Depot. (Despite what amazon says, it's about $4 a can)

#### Glue
For superglue, I have two different recommendations. [Loktite Ultragel Control](http://amzn.to/2H42DvE) is super easy to use, but a bit pricy. Also you end up needing to use pliars to crank the top as the glue gets used up to actually use all that you are sold. I love this stuff when I need more control for like tight spots and such.

I get the 3/16" dia. x 1/16" thick magnets from [K&J](https://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=D31) and my spheres from [Dealxtreme](http://www.dx.com/p/5mm-neodymium-magnet-cube-diy-puzzle-set-black-216-pcs-170237#.WcFZSNOGN24). With Dealxtreme, the shipping time is long, and which color of magnet is cheapest changes a lot, so keep an eye on the site, and order early before you run out. The vast majority of the magnets used are the 5mm spheres. If a set uses the cylinders, I'll call that out specifically. Otherwise, assume that anything using magnets uses the spheres.
#### Paint
For the most part, I use [Americana Craft Paint](https://decoart.com/americana/) for my terrain. Here's their [color chart](file:///Users/devonjones/Downloads/Americana_Acrylics_Color_Chart.pdf). There isn't anything super special about my choice here, you can find usable paints with any of the craft lines. Use the color chart I linked to look at other paint lines to get paints that are close. You should not pay more then $2 per paint for these (The prices sometimes change on these links).
