Do you envision a realistic high-speed action scene involving bicycles or motorbikes running into a body of water but the default water is crystal-smooth and boring? You know that the water churned up by the bikes should have waves, bubbles, foam and spray flying everywhere. Enter the Bike Splash 1 product that contains five different props of churning water as bike tires slice through it. Each model is a result of a 3D fluid simulation using real-world properties. The props depict a scene where the two wheels of a bike go forward in a straight line and create splashes, waves, bubbles, foamy water and spray. For each model, the body of water has different surface so it is just a matter of choice to pick the right one for your scene. The models contain no texture or other ‘tricks’ to represent the water, just plain geometry and a lot of it. The geometry pushes DAZ Studio to its limits because each bubble, foam and spray particle is modelled using spheres with simplified geometry. If you need a scene with a larger body of water, please check out my other products. You will be able to combine those with the props in this set to create as large of a body of water as you wish. The Bike Splash 1 models contain only the body of water with bubbles, foam and spray, but no bikes or tires. Since there are so many wonderful products of bicycles and motorbikes out there, you need to bring your own. To increase their versatility to accommodate bikes of various sizes and shapes, it is possible to scale the Bike Splash 1 models along each of their axes to fit the approximate shape of the tires you chose to insert into your scene.
I hope these new prop models will add a splash of fun to your scenes.
Happy rendering!
