this should help.. its from the woodland scenics site

A thought that comes to mind is to sculpt the rocks, use some kind of clear resin for the water, then while it\'s still tackey give it a light dusting with baking soda.

Going in a similer direction as Shawn.... maybe use water effects, from whatever company you prefer, and give it a few light glazes of white paint, building the glaze and washs up more in needed area for the more solid white parts in the picture.

Hi, I would browse this site as sonny says, its got loads of inspiration, and if you need realistic water stuff, i\'d go for the woodlands one not another companies, as I tried to do this waterfall and its not made of the same material

You should be able to get all this stuff from your local model shop anyway!

for those of you in the Europe side of the pond, try looking for NOCH products. Very similar to Woodland Scenics, but they are out of Germany (I think).

Should do, as it\'s made by Woodland Scenics.

There are several places in the UK to get woodland scenics water effects and the other bit\'s & peices..Hobbycraft stock it if you can find a store near to you.
