Default 1/6 Scotch Glass

I'm trying to create this scotch glass in 1/6. Does anyone know what I can use for the actual scotch inside the glass? Any help would be much appreciated!

Tented clear resin, a small kit would go a long way.

just buy a small bottle of clear gloss at Michaels and add a bit of color to it . It hardens like a rock and looks great . Its like $3


I used it on my Vietman Jungle Diorama - In this pic , it hasen't fully dried so thats why you still see a whiteish color

Very cool, Ecko! I wonder what color could give me scotch...

They use tea in films as whiskey, maybe just brew some strong tea. Real alcohol might have a reaction with the resin or gloss stuff.
