I recently acquired one and am having trouble displaying it.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can best create a swamp or water look (short of actual water)?

It has rocks, fake moss, grass and trees all kinds of good stuff

I could see using it to show a wake behind the raider. Quote:

It's not very hard, just time consuming if you're the perfectionist type ( I know I am lol) but once it's done they're pretty solid for display but not necessarily heavy play
