Sorry for returning to finished topics...I did this with the Bomb ketch because I decided to add sails. Technically the ship is unaltered and finished, but now with the lockdown I gave a try making my first diorama and sea. The ship's hull is unaltered, it sits in a recess in the water.

There is also a small dock to scale next to it. I am quite pleased, this was my first attempt making water

Very well done. Congratulations.

I would place a couple of lines to tie the vessel to the pier. The illusion will then be complete.

You are right she needs a few lines. Thing is, the ship is full hull and that would tie her to the base as well as the pier XD.  Here is the base before final gloss coat etc.
