Needless to say, this was a LOT of work. I was able to make some custom photoshop brushes using photographs from sand in Kauai. The wood grain was from a boardwalk there, as well.
There are a lot of hidden references. If you look close at the bottom of the beach area, you'll see a corncob pipe.This is a tribute to General Pool Supply. The General character always had a pipe with bubbles flowing out.
There was a lot of corporate logo work on this one.
