Yes it is! Here are a few more pics of rockwork. I'm liking how easy it is to work with the acrylic bases.







What do you guys think of this structure? Lots of good places for SPS.

Looks good Warren! I think it's very unique and it will make an interesting piece. Keep up the great work!

Cool sculpture. Will it need something to hold up that left side?

Kien, I just figured out you were being sarcastic there! You cheeky monkey!

Frankly yeah, I'm pretty sick and tired of playing with rockwork now. Screw it. This piece does stand up on its own, so that's it. Time for water. Firing up the RODI.

Any more changes will just have to be made underwater.

Actually I wasn't being sarcastic at all. I really do want to see that structure underwater. It's going to look cool. Then add fish swimming in and among the branches and it's going to be quite something to behold! Love those branches.

Preliminary air tunnel tests show that it might, that is maybe, possibly, hopefully stand up on its own. Kinda. Lol.
May have to add more to the right side for balance.

epoxy the acrylic base to the glass you will never need to worry (unless you like to move your scape around... then you'll be hooped). great looking piece you made.
