Realistic water shading and caustics for ocean and pool simulation
Micro displacement and gloss variation for sand, stone and wooden surfaces
This project focuses on recreating an idyllic tropical resort atmosphere with an emphasis on natural integration and material realism. Water surfaces were enhanced with layered reflection, transparency and caustics to create a believable lagoon effect. Sand and stone materials received microdisplacement and gloss variation to convey textural richness under sunlight.
Vegetation was distributed using Forest Pack, but complemented with hand-placed plants to maintain organic asymmetry.
