High! :-)
This is just a quick test of an idea I had for underwater air bubbles.
There's a point set of 4D vectors containing bubble positions and sizes. For
each
bubble there is a blob. For each blob all other points are tested, and if
another
bubble comes close to the current bubble, a blob is subtracted from it. A
duplicate blob is also subtracted from underneath each bubble. Parse times
aren't
so horrible for low-count point sets (<250), and the render times aren't bad at
all.
The first part of the basic idea came from someone from these newsgroups, but I
can't remember who it was :(
The initial render (/the/ render) took less than 50 seconds with max_trace_level
set at 10. In-POV post-processing luminous bloom and chromatic aberration
effects
were applied. Textured fog was also used.
The arrangement of the bubbles was the hardest part, as there needs to be a
logical progression of large->small bubbles.
There's more that can be done, such as having the larger bubbles capsizing into
numerous smaller ones below, but I'm not quite sure how to script that yet...

This looks very nice. You were able to get that bubbles rushing to the surface
look, as opposed to suspended air bubbles that basic spheres look like.

agreed ... a cleaver solution that's very natural looking.

Two words... then you mean: "Hollow Foam", right ?
It must be the water in my ears. Or the bubbles...
Really great!
