I started work on this pond last year sometime, I sadly did not take photos of the piece prior to the base paint and sand, even though it sat on my bench like that for about a year. Pretty simple process, watched a few videos here and there on ponds etc.

Basic piece based on a CD. Formed with silicone and paper. Middle covered in paper to hide hole and the hot glued in place. Basic rocks glued in place and everything given a base color as well as some white glue to add on some sand for texture. |

Same piece but has now had diluted white glue spread across the initial sand to seal everything in place. |

Extra flocking added (tea) to a few areas to represent a few grassy areas around the pond. |

Grassy areas have color added as well as a white dry brush across the rocks. |

Added some tall marsh grass as well as a bit of flocking around the edge of the pond. |

Envirotex water. Added a drop of blue and green paint and poured it into place. Spread it around with a crappy brush to fill the corners. |
