Paint in water never looked so cool

paint-at-water Mark Mawson from Sydney captures these beautiful shots by dropping paint in water. The colors and the lighting are simply amazing! Author said that in these color shapes everyone sees what they want to see.

    Can one be at multiple evolutionary stages at once?

    I’m pretty sure that effect is not anything new. Therefore your cry of “never before” is wrong.

    I don’t recall reading anywhere on this page the words “never before” on this page, other then you saying it yourself.

    Cool going to try it now with my 5 year old Saturday morning and just the kind of inspiration I needed – thank you :-)

  8. Orlando

    Yes, I have seen these effects many times before,……and much better.
    But keep it up, it’s good fun and you learn something every time.
    Practical tip: try TRANSPARENT colours.

    Ahh the old cloud tank effect.. thank you vfx industry

    and thank you Mark Mawson, that’s a fair bit of work to set up and they look great

    now that we have cg the days of the problematic cloud tank are pretty much gone.. though it gave some great results in it’s day in films such as Close Encounters and Raiders
