Thank you Steve for posting that very well documented "easy rock strata tutorial".
It looks like most of the threads on that scenery subforum start with the word "easy "
I'm modeling eastern Canada and that kind of rock formation ( as far as I know ) doesn't exist here .
Is it a rock formation typical of western US ?
But the rest of that scenery tutorial is very helpful and interesting
I really like Sculptamold too, because small rocks can be carved directly into it, no need to cast rocks in Woodland Scenics rock molds ( using hydrocal ) and glue them.
As a matter of fact, ( specially in N scale ) rocks can be just painted directly on the Sculptamold. That will be the subject of my next thread:
"removable micro hill ( including a tunnel ) for a micro-layout".
