How to convert or sculpt a miniature? How to make a decent base or even a full diorama?!

The 5 Brushthralls have their own blog on their site, and every once in a while something really interesting pops up there:

I have the Vallejo Water Effects, and I can confirm everything about it that has been said in this blog entry. (damn I feel so important now :P:D )

I have the Vallejo stuff to make ice but still have to try it out. Did you by any chance already use it Thomas?

The one you have is liquid while the other one is more like ointment...

the one I have looks like PVA glue. Is sticky and holds shapes well. It's good for creating shallow puddles or small creeks. Or to create ripples on other watereffects. And for creating ice yes.

It sucks for big water surfaces, because if you apply it too thick, it will stay milky. If you apply it in thin layers you'll be working forever to create a sense of dept in the water and still end up with a mediocre result.

The "Still Water" is ment to be a shallow effect water. Not a deep effect like you would make with Resin.
