He had an extra sheet of blue 1" thick foam board. He cut out the shape he wanted with newspaper and cut the foam to match it, while beveling the edges (that were part of the slope) at approximately 45 degrees. He then repeated the process twice more, reducing the sloped edge in length by about an inch each time to make the slope continue. He glued the three individual sheets together, and then smoothed out the slope using a sanding brick and sandpaper. It’s an easy process, which is why I’m using it to build hills on my layout. [:D]
