I have never  been to Australia, but I still feel the scene has a a very distinct  Australian feel. And I really love the purple building! Very inspiring work!
Regards, Hauk

Hi Hauk.
Yes Australia is a big influence I live in a very big city but it is very easy to connect especially the colours are amazing nature can knock you out very quickly
You live in Norway in a very rugged beautiful world I am also overwhelmed by this world and would find it very difficult as having no experience with such a world.
The biggest comment about Australia is that it is a dangerous world yes it is but you have the skills and experience to deal with it.
cheers

Hi Carlo.
My water is epoxy resin tinted with proper resin tinting colours, a very easy product with no nasty smells.
1 part hardener 2 parts resin be careful with the tints they are very intense.
The most important part is that it has to be fresh they say the resin has a shelf life of at least 12 months I throw it out after 9 months. If it not fresh it won't set then it is a total disaster you have to big it all out and start again..
cheers

The flotsam and jetsam along the shore are very convincing Kim, as is your water... well done.
Paul

Stay low, keep quiet, keep it simple, don't expect too much, enjoy what you have.

Yes, the critter.
My favourite about 15 years old now the mechanism was built by a very talented model builder and I built the body out of styrene it runs beautifully.
