I will try to add a small "tip" to route makers here. I know this will probably look so very simple to a lot of veteran route makers, but I think some will appreciate my "tip" no matter how small.
Roads will look better if you add a bit of color on the shoulder. Look at this shot of a road with no shoulder color:
Now compare it to this screenshot of a road with a bit of gravel added to both sides of the road. I don't know about the rest of you, but the color looks more realistic to me.
I sincerely hope this tip isn't too elementary. Just trying to help any way I can.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
