Hey everyone
I just finished my second ship this time with water, on styrofoam and gel it came out ok ithink. But I want to try and do one on a base for my third ship, and Arleigh Burke in 1/700. well my question is a have been studying all the water making tutorials, and really like Phil R's method but was curious as to what is Polyfilla what is it and is it available in the US. I think i have found some putty for the wakes to try. but I am lost on how to make the sea.
Thanks in Advance.

Hello Eugene - here in the U.K pollyfiller is for repairing small cracks, old drill holes, its a powder mixed with water, a fine plaster basically, they also produce a ready-made pollyfiller, have a look at my build ''a simple diorama''
