Thanks, wax_lyrical!
Water is hard! Even doing physics simulations in 3d can be really difficult to make the water look good. Luckily we work with 2d so you can stylize a lot! Anyhow, it's hard to give a tip as I don't have enough info about your project. It is possible, but you have to know exactly what do you want to accomplish. I would recommend you to check these books: Elemental Magic, Volume I and Volume II by Joseph Gilland. He was a Disney special effects animator. The books are easy and fun to go through and definitely a must-have for every animator (if you are doing any kind of animated effects). Hope this helps. Let me know
