Help ! How can I do this ??

[Chris]

depends, do you want a static frame, or are you after an animated wave? Also do you have a budget for plugins, or are you going to attempt this straight out of the box?

Umm..

I want it static
Without plug-in's support

Static would be easist of course. Geometry with some clever mapping and particles at the crest. Animated would be very difficult in any package.

[Dr.Smart]

But how ??
:hmm: :hmm: :hmm:

sweet! A static frame should be fairly easy (whew :eek: ). Just model the shape, give it some displacement mapping for the bumpy bits & use some form of particles for the spray (probably a particle array). some very clever texturing later & viola!

[edit] nuts! What am I living in some kind of time warp here? I didnt think I typed that slow! :beer:

[Dr.Smart]

I'll try it tommorow coz I have to go to bed now :scream:

[Chris]
