Description
This is my first picture using Blender's water dynamics, which I didn't even know was a thing until yesterday! I watched a couple different tutorials and tried it out. The mesh actually came out fairly nice, and VERY detailed once imported into DAZ, but it still has something of a ... blocky look to it with the shader. I'm not sure how to fix this in DAZ, but I'll be experimenting more. SickleYield's tutorial and answers to follow-up questions were particularly helpful!

What's even more awesome is that the water is actually distorting what is below it quite nicely!

Now that I do know this is possible with what I have, I finally can have my orca and others properly interacting with water. I'm very excited for future pieces!
