Are you animating with keyframes or are you using Space Warps, Reactor, etc?

I started using spacewarps. This is what I'v managed.It doesnt have backgrounds and all that.Just the water.Any comments and some tips for improvements will be valuable.

A colleague at work actually got a really convincing waterfall happening by using a series of bones setup like a tank's tracks. It modelled the distortion of the water surface as it splashed over rocks really nicely IMHO. Something to consider anyway..

DChavez out.

This is what I'v got from particles & spacewarps.No backgrounds yet.Just the water & vapour.
