I require i very large amount of water effects for a diorama i am making for a competition at the Falkirk GW.
if anyone has a resonably cheap way of creating a good looking water effect it would be nice.
Thanks in advance.

I dont know how well this works but I've heared PVA glue can do the trick. Never tried it myslef but i've heared that if you let PVA glue just dry in it goes clear and shiny. I think it needs a few coats though. My mate tried it and added a little catachan green to make it look dirty. Didnt look to bad! Hope that helps.

Yeah iv heard PVA is quite good, but layering it takes ages.
Might just change my diorama a bit and just make it a dried up river with really polluted water.
save me a lot of time and effort.
