Description
The title is a bit lame but I like the idea of the whales dancing at the back of the image so ...
Ok this is my real first attempt at underwater scenery. I was following a tutorial from www.geekatplay.com for creating materials and an underwater scene. While looking nothing like their's (LOL) it didn't turn out too bad. Unfortunately though my 2Gb memory was only enough to render a small image in "final" image format. Guess I'm going to have to look into upgrading soon. *S* Materials for the rocks and sea floor were pretty much made by me from following the tutorial, plants and fish came from Vue as standard parts of the program contents.
Thanks for looking and any comments/critiques are always most welcome. Have a great weekend.
