There were several methods tried and tested to create the water effects. At first we tried using some plastic and crumpling them up to create the rippling effects of the waves but, it wasn’t good enough, not so realistic, it lacked character.
We then tried using a bottle of clear glue and mixing it up with some ink, then with some water colour, again to our aghast it too failed to create the desired finish.
Finally I was blessed by a moment of brilliance, silicone calking, it dries clear and holds its shape as soon as it is applied. Plus.... it’s mouldable. We placed the silicone on a blue plastic and then used some tooth picks and some creativity to create the desired ripples.
Silence is golden. Duct tape is silver. ;p
