I liked your work, especially a waterfall . Tell as you it did

 

[Roc]

Hey Kenneth and Vjacheslac,
I - shaped the water fall with Elmores wood filler.
2 - When dry I painted the water a very dark green.
3 - highlighted with various lighter shades of green .
4 - stipled some white with an old worn out brush here and there to give it a touch
realism.
5 - painted the edges of the water fall different shades of brown,because the water on the edges is more shallow and transparent.
6- when dry I gave it four coats of acrylic gloss varnish.

I hope this helps.
Roc.

[Roc]

The figures were painted in oils.
The armor is the pewter rub and buff method,which I've described in previoius posts.
They are nemrod figures,very small and highly detaliled 54mm.

I think this image might be a little sharper.
