I laid down some tiles made from cheap clay (same as the Wizard Tower project).

I painted the base dark brown before laying down the tiles as I found painting between the tiles afterwards to be a painful and long process.

I sprinkled a lot of small rocks and coarse sand all over the base with PVA glue.

To make sure that the sand really sticks to the cardboard, I like to apply a second coat of watered-down PVA glue all over the sand. I tried a slightly different approach this time. Since this is a very large project, I need to speed things up: I apply a coat of watered-down PVA glue mixed with Burnt Umber paint. This would act as a basecoat for the base.
