Starting Scenery: Earth or Ground Layer
The earth or ground layer is key. It hides the construction layers beneath and is the first scenery layer to be modelled. My favourite product is tile grout; it comes in many different earth tones, is easy to apply and very robust. It can easily be used for terrain for wargaming if you use a dropper bottle of white glue too.
