Have you tried dformer with weighted maps?Messing around with combining undulating water surfaces with splash assets in Hexagon. Still have some perfecting to do.

I've messed around with dformers quite a bit, but not really weighted maps. Whilst Hexagon is a bit of a nightmare to use (unstable and not even remotely intuitive) it does give you direct immediate control over the mesh. I'll read a little on weighted maps to see whether it will be of use.Have you tried dformer with weighted maps?
Hexagon goes sometimes a little bit bonkers, but the bridge between hex and daz is so useful. But for more complex modeling you could also give Blender a try. I find it's UI far more comfy.I've messed around with dformers quite a bit, but not really weighted maps.

I used this one as a base:where did you get the skull?
I see, but for some minor deformations to add more detail fast it's useful, for things like your splash it would be very hard and still it would need primitive with a lot of polygons.I've messed around with dformers quite a bit, but not really weighted maps.

Edit: Took a little look at weighted maps and it lacks the power I need to achieve what I require. Really I need control over the mesh density so I can have intricate geometry in the 'splash' zone and lower mesh density for the remainder of the surface. You can see the difference in mesh in the screenshot from Hexagon as in the spoiler below.

The 'box' you can see in the render above results from a difference in angle between the 2 faces due to less than desired smoothing. I may just fix this simply you applying the splash on a perfectly flat base surface.
Maybe wrong thing caught my attention, but what product is that kitchen?

That's a nice one.
Even tho always having a mother-son relationship implied is awesome for me... just a regular mature-young theme is also GREAT!. Always-Next in the miniseries. Although some folks suggest these renders are about mother-son relationship, that's not what i have in mind. It's about a young man and a mature lady pleasing each-other and that's all. But hey, feel free to fantasise about anything you wish.
