Art, it's too blue.   Check out some "YouTube" help on the internet - many great resources.  Most suggest darker colors such as black, browns, tans, olive green and maybe just a hint of blue.   Too much blue doesn't look much like a river.   Your layout is really taking shape - the arch bridge is a masterpiece, but I can also say that about most of the other scenes and structures you have.  Really fun to see the landscaping take shape.

Art - Not an expert on water, but yours is a sky shade to me.  Dave is right that the undertones need to be darker and varied to appear realistic and then covered using a product made to replicate water.  I always try to do an experiment off line on a 2'x 2' piece of material.

Your work on the overall layout is second to none!
