The only white figures I've done were Vikings for a diarama of a ship in the ocean encountering a large serpant. Tinted Lexan was great for the water with submerged dolphin and serpant.
One figure had a gaping mouth which served well as the guy getting sea sick over the rail (composed of fiber optic and glue).
In the movie Ground Hog Day Bill Murry had a funny comment about this craft.
