Looking to Dakka for help. Im going to be making some swamp like bases for my army and i wanted to add some water to each, what are the best options for still water? Im looking fot a relatively cheap product but something better than watered down PVA glue. Is Vallejo Still water the best? Thanks

There are a couple of ways to do it using different products so you can kind of pick what you think would be easiest to work with.

Here is Vallejo Still Water:

There is also Woodland Scenics Realistic Water, it is very similar to Vallejo Still Water.

I have been using Secret Weapons Miniatures product with really good success. It comes in a dropper bottle so it's easy to get into tight spots.
