A couple of different versions with a more detailed & more appropriately 
scaled boat.

Opinions? I'm starting to get a bit lost on this project, to be honest...

It is an awesome work you have produced there! I truly like it! And 
moreover, I might be able to use your waves for my Abyss images.

Are you going to publish your scene code? I would be very happy!

Greetings,

Sven

Already have, it's in p.b.s-f, that's an older version of the scene but the 
water's the same.

They are both good and the sea state more in keeping with the visibility.


the aftermath of a storm, excellent!

This project is intriguing. The water is truly superb, incredibly lifelike.
I agree with others' comments on the boat; it's good to have something
visible through the water, but a realistic boat to scale with the waves
would be preferable. The life-ring looks cool. I think the steeper camera
angle on the last image works better than the toward-horizon shot. My only
real concern is the foam - it's not really right, and only makes the water
look solid, almost crusty! :-) I'd like to see what the water looks like
without any foam; a heavy swell, but not too windy. I think it'd look more
realistic.

Bill

How easily can you animate it?  There's probably a good-paying job out 
there for you if you can.

Regards,
John

All your images in your water series are impressive !

Here, I prefer the second one. The small detail thats bugs me is the 
fact that the water is so clear (the boat is seen so clearly) - I would 
expect to have much less visibility, because of impurities, algae, etc.

Well I had a go at animating it, it looks terrible. I think I could get 
something good if I replace the ridged_mf function with a home-grown version 
where I can animate each octave independantly, but it would probalby still 
look a bit wierd and I can't be bothered putting that much effort in! :)

I agree, I think the bright white on the boat looks way to bright for 
something submerged. I'm going to adjust the boat colours and/or water 
transparency.

Well other people were commenting on a different boat. This is a totally new 
boat, much more realistic, and on the correct scale (IMO).
