@kristenjelly looks nice! Are you using the new-ish fake caustics in cycles or doing some manual work? Have you tried out the luxcore renderer? It can do really beautiful caustics.
@_jonatan_ I used a fake water material and an ocean modifier. I have heard of Luxcore but have never used it. I would really like to try it, I like to create different caustic effects🥹
@kristenjelly It's a pain to set up in Blender 3.0+ (support is very much WIP), but I got it running eventually. Here's a test render I did a while back:
@kristenjelly Yep! A simple glass shader and light tracing turned on. It can also do accurate dispersion, analog film emulation and some other fun stuff as well. It's quite slow and can be a bit noisy though.
