Greetings all.
Just thought i'd share these couple of videos I found on YouTube on how to make a cheap but effective water effect. I'm using it on my WW2 GB diorama and it works a treat!

Cheers dude....
I used similar techniques on my P1 sub build in my portfolio
I used cheap £1 decorators caulk spread on and then rippled and wave marked using stirrers from Subway and a wooden skewer pulling upwards to create the spiky waves..
