True Earth, a new company, is now bringing use a new product for those diorama builders. And I am sure you won’t be board with the many things you can do with it.
True Earth introduced to you last month here on Armorama News is back this month with a new product, and it looks like a great product for diorama builders. Struttura is a foam based product that is carveable and seems very versatile.

From True Earth Website

To say the less, Struttura is an amazing material ! Well, why ?
- It' a compact foam, but nothing about insulant foams or others on the market.
- Easily cut with hobbyknife at any size, leaving perfecly sharp edges
- Easily workable with any tool, carve and texture it to achieve any surface like stones, wood grain...
- When sanpapered, leaves sharp edges
- Surface-soaked with putty and sandpapered, it's ideal to build smooth shapes, like ship's hulls
- Painted with any paint
- Glued with any glue, also solvant glues. Does not melt like usual foam materials.
- Head-to-head glued with almost no seam left
- It's flexible, pliable with hot air, or around a hot tool
- Lightly soaked with vinyl glue or paint, becomes a light, shock absorbent surface
