Hmmm

| Can i get some assistance on drawing realistic water reflection and refraction, both underwater and above it. It supposed to be as simple as drawing shadows but then the varieties confuses so i seek some clear direction for it

The environment and objects are prepared/drawn before hand so it is about predicting the resulting wffects?


| Literally use reference materials.
Failing that, go inseminate yourself with your own hand underwater and see what it looks like. Practical experience is always the best experience.


| >>882932 even reference are not that modular' so does experience. I dont have bath tubs or swimming pool exactly


| Read James Gurney's book Color and Light. Theres a section there about caustics that can help you understand how light affects surfaces underwater, and the surface of water itself.


| >>882991 yeah it s water but not caustics but reflection and refraction on the water waves' seen from above and below...esp below and how the refractions make the water looks almost silvery and the reflections sort of "blends" the wave to the background... such and such. The book s kinda expensive has lots of dinosaurs' whats my other option?

| >>883070 no


| >>883052 pirate a PDF somewhere. Even if it's not particularly what your looking for, its still a highly recommended book that every artist should look through


| >>883098 goddamn arent you illegal.

Whats my OTHER other option.


| >>883104 start selling meth. you can easily earn 50k a month with meth


| >>883106 except i dont know how to make meth. And it looks boring. Except in breaking bad. Also cooking.


| >>883116 you should open a thread on /u/, maybe some g/u/rl here knows how, and the average price per gram you could make selling it


| >>883104 I'll do you a favor and just link you the few water related pages from Color and Light

| >>883118 problem is it looks torublesome
Like evrything
>>883119 wow thx alot... very tiny amount though... but thanks.. are there more in that book?


| >>883142 that's it for anything water related, but the rest are still good information. I'll do you another favor and link you some water related pages this time from Optics by Angela Wu. They're a bit more indepth.

| >>883279 wow this is fuckin plentiful indeed. Much thanks... is it possible if i can get a bit more focus on the underwater rays? Which also means underwater waves that looks like silvery cylinders... https://youtu.be/axK-ieZp1vo

Also thst write up sure is amateurish but almost what i need. Is it just that way with this subject i am lookin for


| >>883279 like can i have more like this?


| >>883490 sorry but that's all I've got on hand. Hope you find more on your own on that specific subject


| Try sex and fun


| I will personally tutor you for the low, low sum of 50k
