fixed up my model...it's much more smooth now...and cleaned up geometry...started texturing and here's what i have so far..

And mine is attached. It's much too clean and needs a lot of work, i know, but I'll fix that when i work on it again.

been workin on my scene...it's a bit green...and i cant figure out how to make light rays as if they're going through the water...or how to blur the camera a bit so the dolphin doesnt look as crisp...i don't do much with rendering...this is a new experience for me

if you want to add a light try this

and instead of adding a colour you just select a image of water with some nice caustics and then just play around with the settings.

drop me a line if you need advice.

thanks, that really helped a lot...been playing around a bit...it's comin along...need to figure out how to soften the dolphin's shadow...and i'm guessing there's a way to distort that as well?
here's what i've got now...
