I've been working at making a polluted little stream that's now a drain.
Water is two-part epoxy resin from the hardware store. I added some green and brown acrylic paint to the resin, just enough to colour it while keeping it transparent.
Obviously lots of landscaping to do to it yet.
Made with plastic tubing for the pipe, water putty, DAS clay, artists texture paste, acrylic paints, coconut fibres, ballast, beach sand, a bit of a matchstick, copper wire, braided fishing line, fine twigs, TimberCoat epoxy resin, and even some fur from our poodle

That's coming along very nicely and convincingly, Mike. Nice work.

Nice, Mike. I like the creativity with materials used here.
I disagree with Lothar on the drinking part - - could be fatal!
Very realistic effect.
BTW, where did you get the "village people" figures?

Thanks for the comments. Lots of landscaping to do, of course.
There is or rather there will be a small industry nearby, but I don't yet know what it'll be. It'll depend on what I can fit in.
The village people are OO scale [4mm] plastic by the UK manufacturer Dapol. They don't make very many.
