Water effect with realistic waves EASY & Low cost

Hi!

I´m using toilet paper to create the waves in my harbour. The result works for me.

Are you going to tell us how you used it?

[Pruitt]

I sure hope it’s new toilet paper!

Hi Jumijo!

Yes, I made a video tutorial explaning the process:

I’ve seen a bunch of videos about sifting dirt to make dirt, but I’ve never seen anyone use toilet paper for waves and water.

Brilliant, thank for sharing!

Way cool work! I am all for super easy and fun. This technique does that in spades. How to modify the colors for rivers/streams? I presume the technique will work the same.

The choise of color depends heavily on what you are modelling. Some shallow streams sometimes look sand brown towards dark brown, while heavier streams in the mountains have a more bluish purpur tone. Check photos or go out there to have a look. The white foam is applied using white acryllic paint layered with WS water effect. See my water fall video for detais on that:
