Subj : Model Foam Clay?

Does anyone have any experience using foam clay for modeling on dioramas or
other "tierraforming" models?

I have seen this product advertised as a lighter-weight alternative to
regular clay and other molding products.  Apparently some people use it for
their cosplay costumes because of its lighter weight vs. similar products.

I was just curious if anyone used it for modeling scenery, like mountain
sides or small hills -- is it easy to work with and mold into shape, etc.?

I am thinking of getting some to "round off" the tops of some large hills I
have built out of foam board.  Due to the shape of the boards, I can make
cuts using my hot wire cutter to get good shapes to stack together and make
hills, but the tops of all the hills are flat.  ;)

Thanks!
