As far as I know elmers glue or something similar. Typically white glue makes easy and decent looking water esque stuff. Just paint it a nice mix of yellows and greens to get that pus feeling.

the tank i ave was not a full rhino it is more like a tank you would find in a junkyard. the top has the 3 open holes, i did not have the bottom, also i had 2 of the same halfs of the tank so one side looks normal the other half look backwards and has alot of spaces. (i got 2 halfs of the same half of a tank so its really messed up ) if i knew how to post pics on here i would

If you take a hot glue gun you can have more control over how the glue is placed, and it appears to have a more natural "flow" (you may have to snip any threads hanging once it dries). Wait until the hot glue is completely dry before you touch it or apply any paint or it will wreck the effect and wreck your brush!
Take a green wash (once the hot glue is completely dry) and liberly wash the clear hot glue with this colour... letting it dry between applications until you get the effect you want. This gives a clear liquid appearance, but still has the green colouring without making it appear too solid...
anyone who's seen my scratch built tervigon (before I got the new models) can attest to the goopy, gross effect this provides (and it's super easy to achieve!)
(red wash makes the same technique mimic dripping and/or congealing blood)

You can also grab some envirotex lite pour-on. It's a table varnish that comes in 2 parts, mix equal portions and add a drop of paint to give it some color depth, let it set for about 10-15 minutes till it's getting like thick molasses then begin to drape it on stuff using toothpicks and/or the ends of paint brushes. Here's an example of it on the spires on my Nurgle Sorcerer lord's beast of burden.

Color wise? or material (acrylic, oil)?
I did everything in either GW paints or other acrylics, the pour-on doesn't emit VOC's so it's not harmful to the air.

I've seen people base them green with some based white to give some depth to squads. I'm torn on which looks better. Their colors are listed as putrid green with a rusty iron trim, however any suitably antiqued red metallic (copper. bronze) would work well.
