Model railway - Scenery

Although scenery is not the primary goal of my model railway hobby, nor is making it a strong skill for me, I do enjoy having something more than just plain tables to run my trains on. Since I like to change my layout every now and then, I can't build a large static scenery. Instead I make smaller self-contained and movable things like hills and stations. I also have some thoughts for some sort of tile-based modular terrain, but nothing concrete has come out of that yet.

So far I have finished one forest hill. It has a styrofoam core, on top of which is three layers of newspaper and finally flock grass. A few cliffs are made with acrylic paint.

I have another hill with a ramp around it under construction, but as my next layout has no place for it, it's likely to be put on hold and completed later.
