A brown-green gel for water that has not moved in years. For fantasy painters it is one of the most useful products in the whole range – a boggy base under an undead, a troll or a cultist comes together in a single evening. The gel is dense and opaque in depth, so it also hides the edge of a base and any uncertain transitions between materials.

Lay a ground texture first – Terrains Muddy Ground or Plague Ground work well – and only then the gel. Add moss and algae with Moss Texture and glossy pools on top with Puddles. For clear, transparent water use Water Gel Transparent instead.
How do I get a scummy surface film?
Press a little moss or fine static grass into the still-wet gel and let it break the surface. Once dry, add matt varnish only in places – it breaks up the uniform sheen.
Is it dark enough in a thin layer?
In a thin layer it reads more like a green film. For an unmistakable bog, paint the base dark brown and apply the gel in two coats.
How do I clean my tools?
Water, as long as the gel is still wet. Rinse the spatula and the old brush right after use – cured acrylic gel will not come off.
Does it stick to resin and plastic?
Yes, it holds on resin, plastic, plaster and painted wood. The surface has to be clean and grease-free or the gel will lift at the edges.
