So I wanted to share an amazing water tutorial I found on another forum (shh I only really focus here)

https://youtu.be/AhG5MXjwU-4?si=ItFKrJgUQQZZ0BjS

I feel that the introduction of a cotton or fiber being coated in a varnish or something was pretty neat. I am only 1 1/2 or so years deep but it was so very hard to create water without all the fancy technicals.

I used Elmer's clear and some stuffing from my wife's excess from her stuffed animal creations. (She made me cell from dbz and it's pretty badass just letting yall know) and incorporating the cotton fibers has had an amazing affect. When coated with the glue. I am sure if I dug deep and purchased the actual technicals it would be a lot easier(epoxy is expensive,stinky, and long). But for 1 hour and half the price I think this is something worth perfecting?

What do you all think?

Had a few people wanting a more in depth explanation so here's my go at a gost engineer tutorial....the things I get talked into..

Wood glue, water, container for mixing glue, stiff bristle brush (for manipulating to

Mix your glue to a good milk consistency.

Put the tp on the base and soak it with the magical mixture

Stab, stipple, tear, mush it around until you get some waves, splashes, or ripples

[Thumb - 20241009_135311.jpg]
Cover your waves or splashes with another sheet of wet magic toilet paper and lightly stipple it down so it's not flat water. Ew

I do my deep water at this point. It's all still soaking wet so it absorbs the color really well and gives you contrast right out the bottle (I mix paint with leftover magic water)

After adding blues and some greens (I like violent green water) so I add a little poxwalker just under the caps and then I blacklined for this one because it's a cartoon

[Thumb - 20241009_090530.jpg]
One before black lining. Once done gloss varnish it ( or clear Elmer's glue ;))
