Thanks Gerry, it's easy once you've plugged any possibilities of a spill or seepage the resin will do the rest. Just wait for the bubbles to rise to the surface and you burst them with a lighter or incense stick.Just had a massive catch up here.
Loving how the pour came out - wasn't brave enough to try that option on my first one.
Fantastic work (as always) - the picture of the passion flower reminded me of a garden that I maintained (sadly the lady passed away just before the pandemic) even had a couple of fruit on the plant!
It was the wife's niece, (who was confined to a wheelchair whose garden it was, I just kept it from being a jungle), the passion flower vine was on a South facing fence.Thanks Gerry, it's easy once you've plugged any possibilities of a spill or seepage the resin will do the rest.

Can't tell who passed away, the plant or the good wife, either way I'm sorry to hear about it.
How is your son getting on and are you ready for the next dio build?
Cheers,
Richard
I see, Gerry, do what's needed first then when you're ready with free time then the hobby kicks in.It was the wife's niece, (who was confined to a wheelchair whose garden it was, I just kept it from being a jungle), the passion flower vine was on a South facing fence.
Son is nearly back to normal, but the stitches let him know when he's done too much!
Still plucking up the courage to start the 'factual' dio, but garden and work are having to take precedence at the moment.
Thanks Jim, the fix was easier than I thought. Looks like I will be making more water scenes after this.Coming on a treat Richard. Shame you had problems earlier. Once cured and clear I'm sure the white will really finish it off. It already looks very good.

Thanks Jim, I'm glad too that it worked being a first experiment.Your clever water fall idea has worked well.
Jim
Thanks Andrew, hope the rest goes nicely as well.That's coming on very nicely indeed.
Very well done.
Andrew
Thanks John, the dry bed was a bit of a worry at the beginning. Even planning can get a bit shaky as assumptions can always backfire.Funny how I find fire and water in modelling interesting
You don't disappoint Richard, the last photos. Show real movement.
The idea of using the packaging for the water poring over the rocksView attachment 433136
Is perfect .That for me along with the vegetation in the water detailing the movement is perfection. Well done.
Thanks Rick, in a bit you'll see a bit.Very interesting so far Richard. Looking forward to the next bit of progress. Rick H.
Thanks Gerry, glad you had a good read.Some great effects there, and the ideas behind them, certainly makes good reading!
Thanks Paul, keeping my fingers crossed as anything might happen or go wrong when experimenting.Richard,
Your eye for detail and your skill in turning it into reality is superb.
