Right, there's no magic here... Very thinly sliced cork covers the big hole in the middle and adds some height. Once dried, covering the cork with glue and then sand gives the most ghetto of finishes (attention table-top). I let this dry completely before saturating with more glue and shaking it in my bag of plaster bits. Plaster bits are nice and sharp and you can easily remove all the fines by screening it. Depending on how much time you spend with the hammer the plaster can vary in size. Now the plaster tends to drink paints so it's worthwhile to seal the whole deal with a 1:1 white glue:water mixture. Let that dry.
Come back a day layer and paint it up. I find for Martian surfaces a random mix of Reikland Fleshshade and Agrax Earthshade breaks things up nicely. I would say that at this stage we gave reached the level of table-top+. I just made that up, and I'm going to tag it.
