You guys have any advice or pointers. I tried this once before and it didnt come out to well. In fact the base is still in my garage unused. Last time I had trouble trying to form waves out of the liquitex. My Lex is about 90% complete, except for the airgroup. Ill try and get some updated pictures in this week. Jeremy

I wish I had the photos that went with the article, makes it easier to explain. Oh well, theres an article I can do in the near future...LOL.

For me, I use the acrylic gel from Liquitex. I did a short two part workshop for our local IPMS club and and an article for the club newsletter. Go to the NJ/IPMS website, then click on Newsletter. The first part was in the June newsletter, the 2nd part in the July newsletter. HTH. Look forward to seeing more Lex pics.

However, the same techniques are used for rather still or big seas. I'm still looking for it, but if I don't find it soon, I will just try and post as much info about until I rewrite one. By the way, here are some of the photos of that wateroma.

Anyway, I will get it posted shortly, however, I couldn't find to many of the photos I tried to use with it. Atleast the info is there and I can get newer photos once I do my next water diorama. Look for the article in the Tips section.
