water trickle effect

[prateekvishwa]

Hello!
I am working on an interesting image which is finally going to get rendered at 10K! It is all done except a wall which is stacked stone with water flowing over it. I tried making map but client is not happy. He want trickles to be visible more prominent & realistic.
Here is a ref image for the kind of effect i want to get- http://www.klandscapes.com/product_i...87574_zoom.jpg
ref image of the stone wall- http://www.stoneslates.com/pic/20110...4-977_sml0.jpg


this wall is around 6 feet wide & 30 feet high!..

Any suggestion to get this thing right?

Fluid sim or particle flow fed into bercon metaballs, or model a dumb mesh and put some nice noises and soft displaces on it for the bubbles.

Yes as John suggested, do a dumb mesh with noise and displacement

[urbanite]

Liquify filter with few water bled layers and a little bit of painting should do the trick.

Frost is the way to go for the mesh - then you can do it with a PFlow and not have to worry about complex sims etc. It will be fine either animated or just as a still.
