Dams and ponds

 I was having a difficult time in creating a dam\pond so I came up with the following:

Paint the base coat a grass green

While still wet add yellow, leave a small green edge.

Next add a light brown, blend the edges well.

Next add a darker brown, blend the edges again.

Next add a little black to the center and blend in well.

Finally put a layer of gloss varnish over. The final product should look like this, I just chose to go lighter in the center again.

 Next week I will give a quick update on my layout progress. Dairy\Citrus farm almost complete.

Cheers
