Any good SU tricks to making shorelines?

[Bryan K]

Of course I'm wanting to make a shoreline for the catamaran I just made, but I can't find any good references for how to make one.

Contouring I get, but it's the water lapping and texturing I need help with.

Thanks!

No, that was good! Everything starts with a good foundation. That was helpful.

I did some thinking............I downloaded a nice, big, image of a shoreline scene, then used https://cpetry.github.io/NormalMap-Online/ to create a normals map. I applied the texture of the shorline in Sletchup, then importen the model into twinmotion and applied the Mormals map. It looks ok. I think it would be good to create the contouring to match the curve of the shoreline

Thanks. That helps as well.
