I like 2 part epoxy like envirotec due to its shine, ease of use, and durability. Some pointers, use acrylic paints, start with line of bank color, then darker line, and then black in middle and then repeat to other bank. Now with 1/2 inch brush blend the colors together to obtain light to black to light shading. If you want some ripples and rocks add ballast and either paint it ( for below) or leave blank for rocks sticking up. Add thin amount of epoxy. When dry drybush with white to simulate white water if wanted.
