IMHO In the real world those lighting effects are caused by the fact that water is a deformed volume "full of transparent matter" not an empty kind of cube... So if it was me, I will try to use a geoshell with glass textures around my figures (with an offset of about less than an half cm and visible for the lower body parts)... and maybe you should activate the caustic sampler... my two cents...
Well, in term of render and scennery i don't have any objections, i personaly like some story behind the pics, may be just to add a little things to make eyes look more how can i say it, to bring life in them, make cornea bulge a little more to bring a volume, don't get me wrong you already have an effect, but i would like to make it stronger, but maybe it's just me, about a model, well what can i say, i can't judge your taste, coz i like more realtic women myself, but in a diffrent style. If you don't understand something, sorry eng not my native.
The waterline is flat because it is a flat plane with a variable pattern assigned to the surface, to make it look like waves. In the spoiler are some renders I did a while ago with a water asset which includes waves without a pattern applied. Hence the waves are real rather than simulated. This water is contained within the Ebano asset as linked below.
Awesome! Any chance you remember the name of that "water asset"? I looked around a while and got lots of splishs and splashs but no wavy water simulator.
:evilsmile:
I could be completely wrong on this (others correct me if I am), but the model is perfectly okay as she is. For me, the lighting just seems off. It doesn't tell me anything; am I supposed to fear her, like her, love her, etc?
Thank you for your advices... I will experiment your lighting setup and try to make the scene more "story telling"...
