I've progressed to the point where I can begin completion of the sea. I'm starting at the tug boat berth.
Strips of 3 mm MDF are glued down at an angle, to represent the lines of swell - as the dock faces the open sea.
Stage two is dry wall jointing compound, which is built up over the lines of swells. By dabbing the surface with the trowel, I can pull it into small wavelets.
When it sets up, it will crack. Then it will be flushed off with dry wall finishing compound; once again dabbing the surface to make more wavelets.
It will take at least 24 hours to set up and finish cracking.
