One thing to keep in mind with real water is that if it isn't kept moving, it will become stagnent and then you could have a big problem on your layout. I'm trying to figure out just how to approach constucting a 28 foot river with a waterfall of about 18 inches. One thing I was told about modeling moving water was the following: Paint your suface purple and then lay out Clear bathtub caulk on ceran wrap. Put some grooves in the caulk and let dry overnight. Then pull off and attach over your purple background and you are supposed to have the appearance of moving water. I haven't tried this yet but I will. I sugest that if you want to try this method, test it first with a small amount. Good luck. tomasch
