At last haven given it time to dry, water wise after being kindly sent from PI&S some more water mix.
I added some W&N Gloss gel to give some movement to the still water, this took quite a time to dry even in these temperatures , so not something to do in the winter months.

Finished it off with some white Vallejo to give a hint of more turbulent water.
Comments welcome, and any tips re the water especially.
John.

Water looks perfect to me. Gives a real sense of movement. Wonderful work mate. You must be really pleased. Will there be more photos showing the whole base as your gardening skills are brilliant??

Well, you might have had some issues along the way but that result is spot on.

As already said, such a convincing movement in the water.
