Thanks!
And I had some mud left over today, so I thought I'd test it out in a few areas. So far, so good. It might not stick well to the foam, but a section I put down for a road is holding well.
I guess when I was asking about this whole thing, I should have said I was using it for things like roads, places where rock slides may have occured, gravel parking lots, etc.

It is heavy and its hard. Putting trees in it is difficult. Carving and other small adjustments are frustrating. You don't save much money, but you gain a lot of frustration down the line.
Drywall seam cement is much better, even better than plaster in my experience. I still like foam, or plaster cloth with a covering of ground goop. (I use very little plaster cloth since I discovered foam).
