I use lightweight spackling compound, it is a little more $$$ but it has NO weight to it,it is not as messy (no mixing to do) and it doesn't harden making it easy to go back later and plant trees, carve out a creek or whatever. The only thing I use plaster for is to line a creek or river bottom.Like plaster you need to paint it the basic ground color for the area you are modeling. I first did a module with this method 9 years ago and it is holding up as good as new. Mike
