I have thought about the possibility of building such a table. Being an
ex-model railroader myself, I would probably build the landscape out of
plaster-coated mesh (adding paint and grass afterwards). I thought it would
be a good idea to embed green plates here and there in the surface (flush
with the "grass"), and make the non-lego scenery a similar colour of green.
Lego trees, bushes, people, and small structures could be stuck onto these
plates.
I'm not sure how to make the thinner baseplates "stick", though, and still
be moveable.
