Description
I took all the suggestion to heart on my Mermaid post and tried to implement them. Here are the results:
1. I turned the Leviathan and the fish around so they face inward not outward.
2. I tried to add bubbles in Poser but my husband said they just made the image confusing. I don't have Photoshop so I couldn't use brushes.
3. The "sun rays" are actually part of Flink's water. I tried to turn the plane around but they render in the same direction. I think it has something to do with it being a reflection map and not just a texture. I couldn't figure out how to manipulate material files so I left it. Which leads to ...
4. Transparency. I originally thought the water was at full transparency but I was wrong. Unfortunately any attempt to adjust it from 0% leads to "ghost" in the image because of the reflection map again. So murky it has to stay.
5. Lights. I have Luna's underwater lights but after not being able to "clear" the image I figured it wasn't worth trying.
So not much has changed, but I wanted you to know I tried.

Fantastic image and render
This picture is wonderful even without Photoshop. Just the right amount of bubbles, and you did right to make them so decent.
Lovely picture! very warm and nice! Beautiful and great work!
Best mermaid render I have seen!
