Скачать или смотреть How to make waves in water with Liquitex Gel Gloss Medium

We’re making waves with this video, literal waves!

Brett is showing you how he is making waves for his waterfront on our model railroad layout.

For this tutorial you’re going to need to pick up the following:
Liquitex Gel Gloss Medium
Gloss Mod Podge
Popsicle sticks
Brush

This is a very simple way to make water and IF you have your [insert box store name here] weekly coupon, can be a very affordable method as well.

The first step is to cover your painted base with three to four coats of Gloss Mod Podge, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next. I applied it with a paintbrush in thin layers to create an even and as blemish-free coating as possible.

Once your Mod Podge layers have dried, it’s time to apply the Liquitex Gel Gloss Medium to create your waves. PLEASE make sure you’re using the GLOSS version of this as they do make a matte version and you definitely don’t want a whole stream or waterfront with dull, white looking water.

I use the popsicle stick to apply the Liquitex Gloss medium in “C” motions to simulate wave textures. Once I’m satisfied with the shape and pattern of the waves, it’s time to set it and walk away from that section of your layout for the evening.

As you saw in the video, depending on the humidity levels and temperatures of your basement, it might take longer to dry completely. Just give it the time it needs to dry before touching this section of your layout again.
