I feel that with scenery, its important to achieve maximum effect with least effort. To this end, I glue most of it together with resin mixed with sand. It dries quickly and is very strong, but heavy.
For the painting, I dry brush with white, then wash with brown/black mix. I repeat this about 5 or 6 times, building up nice depth to the effect, but not having to spend ages doing intricate blending!
The grass is green and brown flock with static grass. I also used some dried out moss.
The metal parts are mostly armour plates from the Ramshackle Games range.

The rocks are made from smashed up chunks of resin
I do the rust by painting the models in brown rust colour, washing over with watered black/brown mix of acrylic. Then its a spray of orange (GW macharite solar orange, the foundation one) done with a toothbrush. Then I do some washes in the orange, and finally drybrush with silver, using a big brush. I went for some arty scratch texture, which I thought made it all look a bit more illustratory then straight realism.
This is all done with misscast parts from the Ramshackle range. If you want some please PM me!

And next a setup with the Dungerdons and some soldiers in my new terrain! Hurrah!
