Autumn's Pass

The theme for this area is as the name implies - Autumn. Took me almost a whole day to get the waterfall and the texture the way I wanted. I realize theres a bunch of grass (overly so), but as I was putting the grass in, I didn't realize it would be so much, and since I had over-done it, I may as well follow it all the way through. I might go back and decrease the grass, depending on which would look better. In any case, here are the shots:

Very nice indeed Forlorn. Bravo! Your skill in area designing is improving with each new area. I love the waterfall, and the way the lake rests comfortibly into the land. Very good job. This will be a great mountain pass

The grass is nice, ..over done? Eh maybe. As long as you don't use many varies of grass i don't see any real problem. A good tip to reduce grass, would be to paint it all down like you did. Then take a small erase brush and lightly pat it in swift , but small circles. Its what I usually do. I was also made aware that players have the option to disable grass in the Game Options menu. So that helps them on thier end.
