I've seen tile grout used to nice effect. then just just a grout sealer. The grout comes in nice earthy tones. Not sure about paint. Be sure to take some pics!

I personally use acrylic paints along with mod podge as a sealant. You might want to check out http://www.lizard-landscapes.com/index.html, can't wait to see it!

I don't use Great Stuff for Leo enclosures but I'm sure it works as I've seen it done before. For my builds I only use polystyrene. Personally I find it easier to work with and with no drying time, moving on to the next step is quicker. Check my sig for a link to my build post. The steps are scattered due to editing restrictions but my blog contains the entire process in one single article.

Can't wait to see some pics so make sure you document the build. Good Luck!
