Can anyone give me some tips on how to get an ocean material that will produce the subsurface scattering in this image? I've tried a few SSS varients, but all the objects under the surface of the mesh are darker than the mesh itself.

Sorry for the semi-cross posting, but the public section doesn't seem to get any attention... :?

I don't need the material itself, but a general methodology would help enormously. Thanks in advance?

Do you use 3dsmax? The scene is 3dsmax one.
