...woah man, that looks really well made.

what finish did you use? and also did you modify the pdo files for the umbrella's plants or did you paint it?
that water too, how did you achieve that effect?
i know i asked a bunch of questions but i promise this is the last one; did you use regular 120/180 gsm cardstock for this or some pearlescent/metallic paper?

either way that looks extremely impressive and very well made. your model here really stands out, i was just curious about you process.

It is a mixture of sealant and acrylic paint.
I did not modify the pdo and everything is hand painted. The roses and sunflowers are from this page (manualidadesaraudales.com) for the sizes of the flowers I printed 7 sheets in one and another 9 in one etc.
The water effect is done with plastic in specific soda bottles, you have to cut it and heat it so that it is malleable and also melt some pieces and then apply varnish.
I do not use metallic paper, the paper I used is white 180g and 200g.
I hope I have clarified your doubts and thank you for your comment.
