Liquid green stuff alternative - acrylic gel / modeling paste: http://www.liquitex.com/GelMediums/ Should be able to get it cheap at michael's or hobby lobby.
Sean mentioned hardware stores. I have to second that; putties and resins cost significantly more when marketed to hobbyists.

Wetting my fingers helped a lot but it still sucked. Yur right about the price too, it was super expensive. I just bought it cuz it was what games workshop sold and I was buying it for their product.
The trade name for green stuff is kneadatite. You can always find it for cheaper than what gw sells it for. They just repackage it and slap a mark up on it.
Been a while since I've had any time to paint, but I've started prepping some figs for some speed painting. Still need to clean up the excess sand and I missed a few spots priming.

If you aren't too picky about a perfect match, you could try ebay for tyranids and genestealers. Even horrible paint jobs will dissolve after a soak in simple green.
It's a fairly good answer to criticism that strikes solely at the rate at which the comic comes out (if this was part of a collection), given that there is an easy solution:
Wait to read the comic until there is a backlog built up.
If this was part of a collection then the pacing would be fine but we're looking at another week of waiting. Even if this is ended next strip we're looking at 3+ denouncement pages and that is far too much for having to look at pycho-dad yet again magically thwomp the order with Miss unlimited PP.
@David Miller - you will not be forced to select the Core Set at the $100 level - although the pledge calculator will default you to "1". You may manually change that to "0" and select $100+ worth of other rewards if you wish.
I'm only really tempted by Expansion 2 and a couple of add-ons.
If you want around 100 dollars worth of stuff you can also pledge at the 100 dollar level. Reaper says you can spend the 100 dollars any way you like - either on a core set, or 2 expansions, or 1 expansion + add ons, or all add ons.
They flipped over another trick card, a troll slayer sophie added to the core set at 2.2 million.
28 mm scale (normal rpg scale), made of bones, and extras available for $2 each.
