Description
Hello everyone and thanks for looking...
For todays image, I decided to play around with Vue a little bit. In one of your comments I got asked to do some more water/underwater scenes, and this is what I came up with first. More Vue work to come later.
This turned out to be a lesson in how Photoshop works, because I wanted to get a concentric ripple effect in the water, and Vue doesn't do that easily. I found a tutorial online that showed me how to use the "Zig Zag" filter in Photoshop, and that seemed to work okay, but I think I'll need to play around with it a little more to get a believable effect.
And the splash is a Photoshop brush.
Does anyone know how to get a good water ripple effect, either in Photoshop or in Vue???
Hope you like it. Have a great weekend.

Tom, this looks great! I love the reflections (I've no idea how to do them), the shadows and especially the water and splashes.

In Bryce I used to use terrains mapped with a glass mat (because they render faster than the water mats for some reason) and I would Paint the ripples with the terrain editing tool. Tada! In Photoshop it's not quite as easy, because of how the reflections have to be calculated, and because it's at an angle it takes more fussing. The Liquify filter works the best, IMO, select, click on Liquify, use the push tool to move the reflection up and down in the shape you want. Because it's tricky I use the filter on a duplicate layer, in case I hate the end effect (you can't really see it in the preview). I don't know about you, but I am ready for summer;)

Lwperkins has the best suggestions for ripples, I'll have to pop up my copy of Vue 8 (demo) and see what the view editors are like, but basically, you need to add ripples in the terrain editor, or maybe you can add them as a displacement map.

This looks great! You can do a ripple effect in Photo-shop using the flood filter from Flaming Pear. It also gives reflections. You jut adjust it ti suit your own preferences.
