Under water?

[Henrikl]

Can anyone give me tips on recreating the underwater scene that is in afterworks gallery?

Hi,

for that scene I just took the supplied underwater scene and amended the seamaterial to make it a blend material, then used a real photo of foam to mask between the seamaterial and a standard white self-illuminated material.

Note that you should use real-world texture co-ordinates to get the bitmap to the right scale.

There was a bit of post in combustion using a plugin called shine to fake the volumetrics, but nothing too fancy.

Cheers

Steve
