Update: 14" x 18" Alpine Layout - improved rock wall

Trial and error pays off! I put down foam and tried to texture it, but I didn't like it. So I tried to find a nice n-scale textured wall, and couldn't fine one i liked. So a google, YouTube, reddit crawl later, I attempted to make a "crustard" wall by pouring it onto aluminum foil. I think the texture looks great, but the modpode did not want to let go of the aluminum.

Slow and steady we go...

Sculptamolded one side of the mini layout. Carved a foot path for a trainspotting area coming out of the tunnle, set a small creek area for a potential fishing scene, and put a textured foam facade on the retaining wall. Tunnel is still removable, and am debating adding lights to make it more of a feature.
