I applied a thin layer of Realistic Water on top to spread across the surface without it pouring off the edge. I repeated this at least three times before I was confident that the tape at either edge would not leak. Only then I applied a bit thicker layer twice to finally get the result I needed. However it looks great as still water, but not a flowing river towards the edge. I tried a few ripples in one layer, but decided I didn't like it. So there's still a decision whether to add another layer and add ripples or use Water Effect. As my work-top was a bit clearer of mess, I decided to start painting three of nine while I waited for the Water to dry. |
