hard to believe it's not the real thing, Ron!

Super work and a story to boot.
How I missed a lot of this I never know, I do how ever have it on good authority the Nigeria now has a shortage of unskilled builders and scammers having all left for a small fishing port in the UK.
A UK seaside town in decent sunshine?In fact the model is as good as finished. All I really need now is to titivate it a bit and wait for some decent sunshine....
Many a great thing was made by accident Ron, Me for example.Thanks chaps.
Big change (As usual!)
I wasn't totally happy with the incoming tide wavelets, figuring the water would still be a bit muddy so....

I brushed some brown paint onto the whole surface (silicone incl.) to try and tone down the blue and green and look what happened! By sheer accident I've produced exactly the effect I was after - A sort of foamy surge as the water races over the shallow mud. I think my late dad was looking over my shoulder.......
Any blue sky will hopefully still be reflected in the finished surface.
I hope you approve of the Mk. II tide surge.
Cheers.
