the surface looks good...but the horizon is not realistic!!! it needs to be flatten. be sure to make it as one straight line.
other than that!! great work!! |

Yea theres gonna be a island on the horizon which the cameras gonna go over to coz it's part of a massive animation that me and my friend have been planning for months! it'll only take us about 2 yr to finish aswell lol.

Have to agree with bullet. The water texture is superb, but the horizon line lets it down somewhat. Like you say, if its going to be covered over though, then that isn't really an issue...

What you need is detail in the center and lesser detail going out. As for texture wise,, think it looks too bright,,, try reducing it and use shaders,, like the fersnel...(sorry if my spelling is off). Oh ya,, as for the horizon,,, try the dome thing (a huge sphere) so that you get a nice curved horizon.
Good Luck Kumar |

Fast Fresnel is already set to 80% Reflection and everything else turned off, i tried lowering it to 60 but everything comes out too dark i then lowered the luminosity of the sky and that made everythin too dark aswell lol so i cant really do too much about it.
I have a 5 sec animation so if i can find it i'll upload it i might of deleted it tho and it took about 2 hr to render. Edit: I already have a dome but it's a sphere not a dome lol it goes all the way around. i guess that was a mistake then.
