Landscape base
I eliminated one layer of builders foam after adding a piece of 1/2" thick plywood for the base. I've glued the layers in place and sculpted in a rough hill. The extra bit on the right side will be for the walkway up to the deck.
The plywood bowed upward in the middle, so I soaked the wood by running water over the board and then weighted the whole thing down to dry.
I gave the landscape a quick coat of gesso. The sides and back will be finished with faux retaining walls. I had the idea in mind already, but Lyssa's fabulous Mt. Ollopa Lodge cinched it for me. The edge of the plywood base will have simple wood trim.
