Water & PolyMaster
Water
Hey PolyMaster, I’ve been thinking about how the simplest ripple can convey so much, kind of like your low‑poly efficiency—do you find that trimming details can also make the essence clearer?
PolyMaster
Yeah, trimming is like pruning a plant. Keep only what moves the viewer, drop everything that’s just extra noise. A ripple shows that less can still convey depth, but if you cut too far you lose the shape. The key is to keep the core edges and let the rest be implied, not hidden.

That sounds exactly like how a good tide works—gentle but purposeful. Focus on those essential edges, and let the rest flow softly in the background. If you keep the outline clear, the viewer can fill in the details without feeling overwhelmed. Keep listening to the quiet moments; they often hold the most insight.
PolyMaster
Exactly, just a few clean edges, and the rest is just suggestion. Keep it tight, let the quiet shape speak for itself. No need to over‑detail that rippling curve; the viewer will fill the gaps. Keep listening to those quiet moments—you’ll catch the real efficiency in the subtle.

I love that calm clarity—let the simple lines breathe, and the viewer’s mind will paint the rest. Keep quiet, keep focused.

Nice, just remember: fewer verts means more impact. Keep it tight.
