Hi and thanks for your remarks!!

Here is a copy from my website to explain how I "made" the vater:

The water is a clear glass plate from the local glass shop (The glass type that was in many front doors here in Denmark in the old days). I was lucky to see the many types in the store and fund this one to be the best suited to scale 1/700. The blue color comes from a curled trash plastic bag underneath, the curling gives a good 3D effect in the "water". The small bubble waves on the front side of the glass plate sparkles in the sunrays and give it a feeling if real water. The white foam is NOT Cocaine! ... - it's just potato powder arranged with brush, cloth and fingers! (Can be a little mess and will not do in windy conditions). The background is made of pale blue cardboard. I have placed the cardboard 1 inch under the glass plate to make the horizon more sharp.

I hope it help a bit!
