Sunset on the new line extension
Good Morning, evening,
Been a super busy week, with lots of things, including a nasty spider bite, from possibly a Brown Recluse or similar....Luckily for me, I think I will be OK,,,,But my booty was a hurting and a burning from the Bite.
Now over to Ruta De La Plata......I took a shot here, only because the Sun, an no, I didn't plan it, it was that I had made some environment changes, what da ya know, as I was fixing the mountains, etc,,THis view came up....And u know I had to take this shot.......This is some of what I envisioned I wanted to see on this part of the Route.
Over here I put a splash of water for small lake in this area....to the far right you see some great looking mountains,,,,,Way out yonder.......
Over on this side, I need to draw, and redraw some low mountains on the left side, ,, with new Tiles and elevation I did here, of 500 feet or more on this end of the Route.
I finally after numerous tries, got the Sheer Cliffs to pan out at more like 45 degrees or so, to look like this,,,,,,Now there are some Sheer spots, and one would expect that in the type of Terrain I am striving to draw here....There of course some dips, I see here, that'll need to be filled in a little,,,,,,
On the right is extreme Ridge where mainline travels above, and we have grand water view below......
Anyone need a surf Board Rock,,,LOL,,,,I took it out, this was caused be over extension of Mouse lines when I was drawing the mountain sides down, and the control over reaches and causes a pop up from the flat tiles in the lake at high distance,,,,,,
From original Route connection here, you can see the addition of the Route Merge due to uncolored tile grid pattern.....
What really counts is the mystique of the far away mountains, u see here, and wonder do we go over there, on the train ride, will we see those towering giants....Yes we will see them......
Im back further on this view here to see if the right side is what I want, and does it match up to what I want the terrain to look like,,,,And yes it does, I am happy with this, now I will go over to left side and draw the low hills and mountains out for the edges of this route. Now look at large freighter in lake below, and you get a strong sense of the depth and breadth of the Lake, this is what I wanted to be able to do,,,,,,
Down further in the Canyons, you look up from here and think about where you are, and how interesting this is starting to look,,,,,I do need to fix those too sharp peaks across and in the middle ahead,,,,,They need to be a bit wider, they don't look quite what I wanted,,,,,That is why, you need to look from all angles, or you miss some odd details only seen from certain locations.
Another view looking from center of Route to far right here.......I might have to add one more tile to fix drop off look on right edge, will see...
That's all for tonight folks, I have a 3 day trip to catch early in the morning,,,,
See you in a few days.........
