    For realistic water - you can use blue/brown paint mixed with glue and pour it on thinly. It'll dry kinda clear/blue and it really looks like water.

    If you go to a modelling shop - you can buy this green powdery stuff that you can sprinkle onto a glued surface to look like grass/land. It looks really really good and it's so cheap!
