I never get used to how you somehow do these magic tricks. Like this video "Nothing impressive looking here" then at the end just take brush with white paint, dab it around and BAM straight from the gods themselves. Worst part is how simple everything looks and turn out frigging amazing, it's unreal.

I've found an alternative use to this mixture as well: I was making a 1/72 scale A4D Skyhawk, and after I finished assembling it it turned out that despite putting the recommended weight in the nose, it was still sitting down on its tail. And the fuselage was already glued together, so I couldn't just add more lead. There was, however, a small gap between the control panel and the cockpit floor, so I mixed a sanitary silicone with IPA (to a little more watery proportion) and used a syringe with the biggest needle I could find to inject this mixture into the aircraft's nose. The silicone has now dried up, and lo and behold, with its weight the aircraft is now sitting neatly on all three wheels. If there wasn't any gap in the cockpit, I think I could simply use a drill to make a hole in the nose which I could cover with putty afterwards.

Really cool video! Great tutorial all the best for 2019 Luke!

What a brilliant way to do it and it’s so fast it’s taken me a lot of time to get anywhere near that effect with proprietary brands as they keep flattening down.

Been waiting for this one! Nice one Luke mate. And good luck with your further business ventures!

BRILLIANT! I've been trying to figure out how to make water effects like you achieved with Clear Fix. Thank you for sharing your process!

Nice one luke. I can really see the potential of this product. Thank you for the time you put into R&D.

Luke at his best! Been missing your cheapo tips and tricks :). Not that i don't like your other stuff, You're still the number 1 guy when it comes to terrain making for me. Keep up the good work, mate!! All the best

Thanks so much for this video, it was incredibly helpful! I just made my first ever water effect for a diorama: a beach and ocean with waves, using this method. I used real sand, shells and rocks from a beach, and even built a little cave. It came out brilliantly! Cheers mate!

i am just in the beginning stages of making model's etc, this video has been so helpful thank you for sharing.

This looks so good, man.

I know this is an old video. I have tried several water effect products that doesn't ever seem to work for me. This effect looks very promising and I hope to try this on my board. I hope this works. I like the fact that this is a thick, quick drying method. Thank you for showing us this technique. I did use this effect. It does look pretty good for what I used it for. I had to buy 2 tubes, but still cheaper than buying actual water products. I even still have some left over in 2nd tube. Thank you for showing me this affect.

Dear Luc, thank you for posting this video. Good and simple solution that makes modeling hobby still financial friendly and afordable apart from achieving great results. Thanx again and keep the good work!

You enthusiasm is infectious. Bravo.

I expected that tube to be 30 quid - but dang this stuff is cheap! I'll definitely be getting it for my small puddles to not have to bother with resin at this stage of terrain making! Thanks for sharing Luke, and I'll definitely buy it over your page!

Luke at the end of that caulking gun thee should be a notch that opens the caulking tube , so no knife needed. Well most of them do have it not all. All the best mate I am rooting for ya in your new full time career .. Go get them son

I think that's fantastic, have always wanted to do more water related dioramas, particularly when making 148th and 132nd scale float planes, very helpful indeed, thanks very much 😊👍

Very authentic person and very talented artist. Nothing to dislike, so you have a new subscriber. Thanks for all your great work. Greetings from Mexico.

These look great! Super realistic. May have to give it a try

Its amazing! Will defo use the link to buy when I'm back in the uk.

Great effect! Looks fantastic. Really good price for the polymer too.

THANK YOU!!!!!! I have watched about 20 videos today and yours is by far the easiest and best looking. I am going to order.

Wow. I would never have thought of this, thank you, and I’ll definitely be checking out your shop

Awesome tips! Looks great!

Absolutely fantastic work.

Nice dude cant wait for the helm's deep build!

Awesome vid mate, this has now given me a 1000 more ideas... cheers

You clearly over estimate my mother XD

Been using the Evostik version for a while now, really great, great to know can get it from you now though. I will put a coat of varnish over the top to add shine if needed and to harden the surface. One coat of quick drying varnish and she is golden. Thanks for the great vids bud.

I've used this a few times , it's great and miles cheaper than anything. It helps if you put the bit you want to use in the microwave for about 20 -30 seconds and it makes it easier to deploy !!

I've been using polymers mixed with white spirit, which is cheaper but smellier. Iso is the way to go.

There is a thing you called "stipple dry brush", I've just heard "dry brushing" (in the US at least). I'm new to game miniatures painting, and for the base of a plague doctor piece, I want the base to look like a cobble stone walk with dirty water between the stones. I just came across your video when I was looking for options for creating water effects. This is amazingly awesome. I'm headed over to your store to check it out. Thanks for sharing this information and demonstration.

🌊 looks amazing 👏🏽

Maravilloso video,gracias por mostrar esas ideas,nunca antes las había visto.

I coul have used this ideea in my first diorama lake :)...but i will surely try the splashing effect. Thx man! Great ideea with the cheap alternatives! It worked for me and it turned out great!

Thank you so much, great information. This is very detailed.

Amazing work mate, great tutorial

just bought a couple mate, all the best for 2019 hopefully geek gaming will be a big success

wow. that's incredible

Great Video, just waiting for the gore effects for my PureStrain Genestealers! :D

Brilliant.

fanFREAKINGtastic man! Thanks

Oh snap! I have a tube of that downstairs that's never been opened! Score!

i love this, thanks for the inspiration.

Mate it's beautiful 😍

Amazing technique !!

That's awesome buddy, I will definitely give that a shot, I like doing water dioramas but extremely dislike the long wait in between drying stages

I can see obvious applications for the likes of this, with say armour going through wade able rivers or bikers going through streams at speed as this would make it appear as if the water is being thrown back on itself, so yeah I'll give it a test run and see what effects can be achieved - cheers mate!

I have been trying to come up with a medium to stick a piece of debris in it in front of a primaris psyker. Going to try paint it purple tones and make it look like the energy that is holding the debri up in front of him as a shield.

Cracking video, superb product

I feel like this could be used to make fire effects as well.

This is, by far, the best water effect I've seen. Spending so much time and money to bring us this, you sir are a great man.

Awesome stuff! Funny how you've moved on to considering how to make big waves and swells etc at the same time I've been. You've started talking about it well before my current vids so not sayn youve taken my ideas lol, and ive been working on my ideas of big swell's/waves before id seen any of yours. So awesome stuff is what I'm trying to say haha. This is very interesting and I'm going to definitely have to give this a go and give u full cred if I end up using it in the future!! Awesome stuff man.

Awesome vid. Good job.

Great vid Luke. Cheers for taking the time to give us all these gems.

Very nice job well keep up the great work.

Wow. Thank you.

Wow, Love this video and the stuff. You do make it look really simple to use. Looks like you have it fairly priced on your website, and it doesn't look like it's available in the US as cheap. Think it's time to make an order!

Can’t find ClearFix here in Texas, but experimented and found that LocTite Power Grab Ultimate works like this too. You can get 99% isopropyl at Randall’s; haven’t found it anywhere else. Takes quite a bit of stirring to get it into a nice liquid consistency with a bit of thickness. If you thin it enough, it will pour, bubbles will rise to the top while it sets. Comes out quite clear and smooth. To add waves and splashes, I let the smooth water set and then use a squirt straight out of the caulk gun on top, since that will stay in place better. DAP UltraClear will not thin with isopropyl. Just doesn’t mix.

Might be good to use with a palette knife for really building texture up and throw in some clear plastic for waves breaking off objects in dioramas/display bases

Keep up the good work Luke Grate Vid again

Queria muito ler os comentários e entender mais esses efeitos. Amo essas artes. Amei seu vídeo

Did Luke ever release his own version of a wave product? I'm desperately looking for exactly what he has described and it'd be great to be able to support him and buy his product instead.

There's something for the Idoneth Deepkin. I've never seen any water effects stuff in shops

Ok that’s it, I’m asking my mum to do it for me...thanks mum!

Thank your great idea....❤👍

Nice guy , amazing vids and bags o talent , keep it going pal..

Nice video will defo be trying this on my canal scenery for model railway

Fantastic, thanku so much for all your investigating and experimenting. Very much appreciated. Reminds me of cooling caramel or toffee lol Or how u lift a fork up and down to get peaks on meringue..😅😃 Caterers and decorators of cakes use the isomalt.. Amazing product but has to be heated to be melted..thanks again Luke 😉

that is awesome thank you very much

I swear to god I remember you using clear fix for something on the channel ages back, I can't remember what it was tho haha

Brilliant!

Spectacular.

Would it react with inks on a large area if you did smaller parts of it in stages and layered it ?? And great video mate , soon as I get my compo money through i'm shopping at your store again , this will be on the list for sure just need to buy some iso but that's what your discount code is for 😁

Finally, you tease, you. Another use for Iso? I really like the way that it looks over the painted bases. Do you have a technique for getting rid of the bubbles in the water?

I love your honesty when it comes to how you are going to make your money, and applauded your endeavour, hope it all works out for you and you make a shed load of cash to pay your brother to build your miniatures. One quick question, as these products you mix are quite strong chemicals, are there any pitfalls to mix ratios you have found, I know with some chemicals if you use a wrong ratio they can react badly and either generate excess heat or toxic vapour, any tips?

I seem to be getting recommendations for channels that are older or I never seen but I'm sure glad. This is a great tip. Do you know if the clear fix will stand up to resin?🥰

Superb tutorial thank you

Cheers Luke.

Interesting, could be used as coagulated blood effects for an upcoming project.

Great!

Hey Luke, Would this be considered your part 4 of how to make a ocean? Or is that still to come out? Great stuff by the way!! Thanks!

You frekin' rock ! thx for the EPIClY cool videos. And making it so even dumbas Nothern folk like myself understand it!:) Please nvr stop thoose vids commin' out best regards Rasmus From Denmark

This is great

thanks for sharing,, i always think what to use for my dioramas to look it realistic, because i cant find resin here in the philippines, we have to order it by online shops overseas ang its not cheap. thanks.😊

Thnx for video 👍👍👍

I have tried to use woodland scenics water multiple times and can't quite get it how I want.... this solves all my problems. I was lucky enough to be able to support you with some of your basing products on the weekend. With quality content and excellent prices, i know I will continue to support you in the future as well. Thank you for solving a problem I was having. Absolute legend

Dude this is AWESOME!!!! Very helpful...and oh...i LOVE your eartunnels!!!Lol mine are just 2 cm but yurs must be like 5 or 6 cm :) hahah Anyway bk on topic,this vieo was helpful andwill seriously give it a try once!! Thank you!!!

Looks great. Late to the party, but three questions for anyone in the vicinity... - How long does the product remain stable in storage? - Will ithe Clearfix / isoprpanol mixture dissolve certain kinds of plastic with prolonged contact? - Can you get flat pool effects with this stuff? Many thanks to anyone who can help.

Hello! I was watching this video and it’s amazing! I hope you make someday a tutorial about how to do a Lava river, like the Star Wars planet Mustafar, that would be awesome!

awesome

Thanks for the vid, Luke. Have you tried using it on thin bases like cardboard or cloth? Id like to use this product on a fake fur gaming mat but does it shrink or warp? Is it a bit flexible in a thin layer or does it become stiff?

Miss you bud!!!

Genial por compartir tus experiencia y bajar costos con productos caseros. Solo una duda, las burbujas que quedan atrapadas. empaña el resto del realismo que crea esta textura de silicona y alcohol

Awesome

Cool

Have you tried acetone to cut down the harshness of the edges, ?its very good for dissolving plastics as in nail varnish

It'd be really good if you could stock the isopropanol too, or the other "stuff" you used in your videos, so somebody like me can just go to your site, buy all of it from there, and then come back to the video and follow all the steps you've done with the exact same equipment :)

Great idea. How would you go about getting rid of the air bubbles? Just poke them with a toothpick/cocktail stick?

Can you use this to make stagnant swampy looking water? Great work by the way.
