Re: (fwd) Review of a new wash technique for miniature figures

G'day guys,

 >Gloss Medium makes great water for tabletop rivers and the like. Three
or
 >four coats over a black/blue painted surface look 'wet' enough.

Another option (though fiddlier) is to flock the river course with "fine

balast" from a model railway kit then brush on a layer of "glue mix"
(about 
50% wood glue... the white PVA or whatever stuff it is.... 50% water and
a 
few drops of blue ink). Works quite well, ripples and all. Also very
cheap.

Cheers

Beth
