I don't get it... the clouds won't cooperate, I don't get the shapes right, even
the foam doesn't look as good as it should.  But the textures do their job right
:)  Only problem: it's impossible to layer patterned textures, so I had to nest
them instead, which works fine but isn't as easy.

There's also some vegetation, but that's just a first try.

anyway, comments are more than welcome! :)

Nice texturing.

The pointy hills are nowhere near realistic.. they're crying out for 
erosion. ;)  Of course, if you could get the scene to look somewhat 
photorealistic in all aspects except that one, it would make an 
interesting scene...

Hey, don't get frustrated, man -- the water is simply damn cool!

But I agree WRT the clouds and the land shapes.
