Guys, I need suggestions on how to make underwater scenes look cool and alive. Tips?
I'm struggling making them. Submersible vehicles I'm okay with. I bought the big city one used and I love it. But I started building a base and surrounding it with stuff, and I'm just not enjoying it. Look at this picture. I didn't make it, but I feel the same frustration looking at this as looking at my own base creation. I feel the same way with other similar underwater creations I've been looking at too.
It wasn't until I saw this video that I think I started figuring it out

My problem with underwater creations then is because all of the pieces not having that blue/green filter or shade to give that appearance of being underwater. How am I suppose to fix this? Only use pieces that are only blue/green? I already have a huge box of childhood and used lego that can't fufill that need then. There has to be a solution that doesn't involve spending a whole bunch of money. I can probably make above ground structures look decent enough but I really want to make underwater stuff. Thanks for reading my rant.
