mmmmm......flexstone. Course I'd never heard of that name, the stuff I use is named something different. Great stuff, makes a nice stone effect on buildings. I have a partial set of walls and towers built using it. Doesnt stick to styrofoam too well though, takes a lot of coats.
my 2cents,

Paint your styrofoam with white glue (watered down). Two coats should do the trick. Then the stuff has not problem sticking.

Hmmm....never thought of that! Thanks Daf! Have to try it, will help reduce the cost of my wall set. At $7 a can, that stuff isnt cheap!

Plasticard, ex-mini bitz and junk (Especially trashed toys) are the best materials I've found for buildings.

Great point Maksim.
I have a nice building I got at a convention once. It was an old Toy "bit". I will have to take a shot of it and post it.
