Re: modeling a swamp
I recently had vinyl siding installed on my house and noticed that it has tiny "ripples" in it. It's not perfectly flat. I "rescued" a few pieces from the scrap barrel and thought it would make a good gravel road when cut to a desired width and painted brown.
Re: modeling a swamp
I'm not much of a scenery guy so I was hoping for ideas, too. For a swamp on a previous layout I used a hole punch to make quarter-inch circles from green paper to represent lilypads. I also pulled bristles from a scrub-brush and "planted" them to represent cattails. I know others should have much better ideas.

for your "muddy ruts" why not go with spackling compound, if you need tire tracks run through it with a hot wheel or matchbox.
