A scenery experiment from me today. I wanted to use the skull tower from the Warhammer Magewrath Throne set for something a bit different from the throne tower (as I've not a clue how wizards are supposed to get up there anyway). The idea of using it for a water tower popped in to my head when I made an impulse purchase of some water-like acetate sheet (usually used in fish aquarium displays).
After constructing the tower and painting it (white undercoat, brown wash and screaming skull highlight layering), I cut up a portion of the water sheet and glued it in to place. Around the edge, I sealed in some flock and general greenery using some superglue. From the top, it really has a kind of holographic water appearance, whilst the side-on view looks convincing too and provides a solid line of sight blocking presence.

Nice! I have the skull tower part of one of those lying around myself, after using the throne parts for a different project. Been trying to figure out what to do with it. Might have to borrow this idea from you.
This just gave me the idea to put a cover and use blood for the blood god instead of a water look... maybe have some spilling over the sides.
Thanks for the inspiration. :-)
