Still in RnD…

Look pretty cool, CeeGee!

Don't forget about your fregate moving too!

Nice wave effect and boat model.
Is there a project behind this ?

No this is my personal project just learning

could you share some technique you used behind the scene?

Yes,

Ocean is Houdini Ocean Toolkit

it missing in this scene

This is rest of the scene

thanks for sharing, just one question though, what's the
functionality for the cusp vopsop in the scene, some kind
of geometry cleanup work?

Looks like it's coming along really well. Nice job!

First video is nice because you have the white water across the entire ocean.
Second video only has it against the ship.

With both videos, you need to have most (start with 75%) of the spray moving toward the back of the boat, keeping in line with the oceans current/direction.

This is being picky of coarse, nice work.

Love your camera in that last post. Very “Master and Commander” (one of my favorites). Keep going!

Thanks

Hi, I love the progress! Can't wait to see more on this one. I finally got HOT installed and running so i'll be posting my results too. Might have a couple questions for you since you're coming along wonderfully

some small update

With the latest ocean render my only issue is that you'll need to change your camera settings to get rid of the horizon curve; it should be flat.

Very nice sea But I would suggest some bigger waves, it adds in drama and i guess bigger waves would also help with the motion of the ship because it seams “almost” not affected from the waves.

Is the ship also modeled in houdini or some other package?

Keep it up
Cheers
