gerrysmodels Advice re modeling beach and sea
Posted by gerrysmodels on Tuesday, September 4, 2012 6:02 AM

My next project is a dio involving American Infantry storming ashore on 
D Day from a landing craft.

I have never tried to re create a beach with the sea using water effects.

May I request some tips on the best products to use and especially how to get the waves and the colour of the water.

Regards

Gerry

I don't know if this is the best, but hat I was thinking (as I hope to make a similar dio one day): carve the base from foam.  Use sand from the dollar store, the future for the water.  Make some waves with acrylic caulking.
