Originally posted by AikoWorld smooth out the sails try to make the sails translucence also the sails colour could use a more yellow/braun/orange tint the wood board should be along side the boat (the deck) the angle of the view makes the boat look miniature. the waves could use some differences. the wood texture looks a bit flat, no realism. Anyways keep it up, don`t update if you have a different view then me. I can smooth out the sails and try to put some transparency on it. Don't really know what you mean about the boards… you mean the ones on the deck should be going horizontal (in the view that it's set up for)? The waves actually look fine to me. I've been studying how water acts in large bodies, and it does look repetitious in the real world. About the ship looking small and the flatness, it's because of the size of the image. These small Quantel NTSC preset sizes don't do it any justice. Thanks for the crits, I'll try to get them finished off tomorrow, as I have some things to do tonight… :zzz:
