Glass sea stand

[ship wizzard]

Hi,

 

maybe I am asking this question in wrong section, but I am interested in stand made of glass in shape of sea with waves.So do you know anything about this king of stand or how it can be built or where it can be bought from? Thank you!

I doubt if there is such a thing as you describe. It would need to be custom made and very expensive. 

 

 

Perhaps the same effect could be achieved using a thick sheet of acrylic plastic, carved, shaped and polished. Again, this would not be cheap unless you can do this yourself.

Ship Wizzard,

I do believe that Druxey (and also myself) may have assumed you meant something very different when you asked for your " ... stand made of glass in shape of sea with waves."

 

I think you will find that what you are looking for is called a Waterline Diorama.

 

You can search here on MSW for that term and a few may prove useful to you.

Some examples you may like could be found here, and here.

 

And this is a build I have been following recently ...

 

Hope these are what you are looking for.

ah, thats not likely glass but water like that is usualy either sculpted from plaster and then painted or made from a polyurethane, silicon or epoxy resin.

At first it looked like glass. I will look for waterline diorama adn find out how it can be made. Thank You.

By the way i found this tutorial showing how to make diorama waterline (sea, ocean)..Its complicated but final effect is outstanding (especially for tall ship models)

After you've watched those two, check this guy out.

(He's a little bit easier to follow ...)
