Even when standing still in a body of water there is an ongoing interaction between the water and your body. Albeit almost imperceptible, the water still moves due to you getting there or the water is driven by currents, wind or other natural phenomena. As a result, there will be small eddies, bubbles, spray or foam around your legs. The Just Standing in Water product brings this small nuance of realism to your renders with ten different models in the set. Each model is a result of a 3D fluid simulation using real-world properties as the position of the legs was slightly varied from model to model. For each model, the body of water has small but different waves 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 models contain only a flat body of water about 1 to 1.5 of average human height in with bubbles, foam and spray. But to increase its versatility to accommodate ‘legs’ of various sizes and shapes, it is possible to scale the prop models along each of their axes to fit the approximate shape of the human body you chose to insert into your scene.
I hope these new prop models will add a splash of fun to your scenes.
Happy rendering!
