Nice work - and all of it your own!
This is what I like about the Planet Figure forum - the chance to see something like this every now and then.

Aw Come on. . . you're just teasing us! Such a novel idea,
and so well executed, at least I think so from only . .. hint,
hint, just two photographs. We want more. Show us some
more photos from other angles. This is just too good and quite
a bit different from what Planeteers usually see here. Pretty Please,
with sugar on it?

Like very much the water effects

I agree. Now I´m working with resin to simulate quiet water and I think your work is top level. Really spectacular.

I remember Mr Verlinden explaining how he does quiet water
no deeps , just paint the base directly with an aerograph, green, center add some white/yellow to the mix and use aerograph .
Then still with aerograph 3,4,5 x levels of clear varnish . The result was amazing

I would like to see an SBS of something like that. Anyway, when i finished my work I will show the way I did.

Amazing water effect! Yes, an SBS on still water and/or splashing water would be a nice treat.

I too would like to see an SBS on how you achived such a realistic water effect . I have a figure I tried using epoxy glues to get the effect , it was OK for about 6months and then went yellow . I need to start again or scrape it . your input would be great .

Hello,
Thank you for your comments and I am sorry not to have responded sooner but I was at my work.
Difficult, very difficult to make a SBS to show how I did for water.
This diorama took 10 months of work, 4 months just for water.
I use acrylic resin to LIMOUX in my city, in France, it is in a store "hobby."
All weekend I spent a resin layer and I include cotton in the last layers to relief. The cotton / resin becomes transparent.
It does not become yellow, unlike the epoxy resin.
CHIPPY I do not know how to make your problem may be tinting with blue or green translucent
The only part of the trade is the tree in the torrent, MK35.com.
If you have additional questions, I will answer.
