Hi Daniela  :wave:  It was almost two years ago when I got this fabric and now that I'm thinking about it, I may have gotten it at Wal Mart before their fabric department went bust.  I have however seen a few different fabrics at Hobby Lobby recently that I thought looked like decent water.  Their website is terrible for finding anything and going to the store is really the only way.  I'll PM you with my findings after the next time I go.   :wave:

Great picture, el jefe!  Your "water" looks excellent and I like your Santiago and the fish too! :)

I got the marlin in that set bonniebeth linked to.  He is also available as an add-on set along with the stingray.

Thank you Baden.  I did consider doing some of the scenes from the book.  I do have a few sharks....
