When creating a water scene should I paint a base coat of color prior to pouring the artificle water on to the base,and if so what color should I use?Thanks for the help.

you can purchase resin pigments from some of the suppliers. Add this to your resin prior to pouring.
I was taught that in water scenes in wooden bases that you paint the base a dark color like black , it gives the illusion of depth to your water. I've toyed with the idea of putting a mirror on the base and pouring water over that for a reflection , like an ice fishing hole. good luck Paul
what about putting down sand or even some dirt instead of paint prior to the pour would that give the same effect?
