Worked on this last night. Will be used to add onto Styrofoam that will be going under the tank to block the light from the bare bottom. Will also be speckle painting the Styrofoam with black for the white black look. The quote will be in a fluorescent pink. Doing backgrounds in ocean blue. Should turn out pretty cool.

Thanks rev

What do you guys think for the quote? Which one? Black or clear? The dissolving worked to my favor and made the pattern look like the bottom of the ocean with the sand dune Look
