I stumbled across Gator's method for doing a water diorama and used it as inspiration to complete this Diorama.



The method for the water is purely Gator's
I did modify his idea for artillery splashes to create the bullet strikes using paint brush bristles dragged through clear silicone caulk.
This is my first attempt at a diorama.
I did a demonstration of this technique for my model club Eastern Carolina Plastic Modelers and it is posted on YouTube at this link

Ahoy Brian,
Welcome to Model Shipwrights, mate!

Nice looking dio, my friend, and I too agree, Mr. Loup's method for water is a good one...if you wish, take about 15 digi images of your dio, different angle shots, close-ups, etc, and e-mail them to me, and I'll put together your first MSW "On Display" feature...whaddaya say?
