Been awhile since I've posted updates here, so here's a big update of what's happened over the last few weeks.

Thursday night and Friday I made some additions to the terrain on the lower level.
First I added a small hill to the foreground at the end of the lower level, and then a hill along the backdrop at the the same spot. It really helps fill the scene I think not having all that flat space.

Then moving to a right to one of the corners: I didn't like this sharp drop the hill had, so I added some terrain to give it a more gradual slope down.

And the same for one the banks along the river.
