i used the sheets of foam found in the craft stores by the floral section. very rigid foam.

i scaped the viv with layers of foam much like a topographical map, then shaped it and added chunks to break up the lines.

Nice! That's a great looking rock wall. It will be nice to see that as it progresses.
