Hi
Just wondering how others out there build their hills and dales. I've heard people swear by chickenwire, aluminium mesh, polystyrene foam blocks, even scrunched-up newspaper as a basic substrate for landscape. Then there's Modrock and various modelling plasters and foams. I know this has all be covered before but just want to gauge is anyone has partucularly strong feelings.
For what it is worth I have plumped for the 'cardboard lattice' technique, with stapled cardboard strips covered by modrock. Has anyone else used this and what is their opinion? I am only just starting out on my scenery and not too late to reverse-ferret ...
