"Several years ago Battlefront released a set of river section with two bridges. At the time I really wanted these rivers but I figured I have time to pick them up. That was before I realized that BF terrain sets are all limited editions. Soon after that set was gone, however, GF9 (part of Battlefront) released expansion sets for the rivers.

Easy enough to scratch build these. I have made them using card as a base with milliput for the banks and if texture is wanted for the water surface.

Painting is the key. Lighter at the banks shading to darker in the centre. Wet blending the shades helps. Then a good high gloss varnish over the water. Don't make each section longer than 6 inches to avoid warping. You could use 1mm MDF if you can get it cut to shape.
