Water Techniques

Alright, after weeks of no upload I come up with this... uh.. A rather mediocre picture of studs.

What, studs? Not just any studs... some sort of discussion on another pic got me thinking about

ways to make water in my future MOCs. I was thinking of using something similar to this

(the picture sucks pretty much so it doesn't look so good here, but it has been used in

this 'Last March of the Ents' MOC and some others I've seen) and I started to wonder whether

I should even think of using something like this at all, or perhaps move to something else...

 

This way of making water would be using lots of loose transparent studs, and maybe

cheese slopes as well. For Helm's Deep, I wanted to use either one of these:

a) just trans clear studs etc. or b) trans clear studs mixed with trans lt. blue.

 

So I wanted to know if you guys thought of this as a good idea,

or if I should start thinking of something else... this would otherwise also be used for water

and it would look better with some layers of blue colors under it, I suppose.

If you've got a suggestion or an idea for water, feel free to post something... I could go for

something like this in Helm's Deep,

and use the "Derfel Cadarn water" for other things, so to call it.

 

And yes, that is, or rather was, a Rohirrim...

 

NOTE: Osgiliath is still being made as of now. Planning to do a preview shot soon,

and I want to start some photography improvements in a bit before I post new MOCs of mine...

Has it been over a year since I last publicly posted an actual MOC, other than figures?!
