Call out to the River Police! Please let me know if I goofed anywhere here. Or if you see something that may need tweaking. Thanks!
Ok looks like I have finished the land forms. Now it's time to do the rest of the rivers and lakes. Next up some experimentation for flora.

Since you eroded it with software, the rivers should all be "correct".
It just looks funny to see so many rivers join at an angle of >90 degrees.

Fixed some of the river connections. Software..Heh..the only software I used is CS2 and a Wacom Bamboo. I hand painted all the mountains and the erosion. man my hands are stiff. LOLOriginally Posted by RobA
Sorry, my bad! For some reason I though you had used wilbur on a heightfield for that!
(guess that means you did a good job?)

Now THAT is a complement! I'm now convinced that I'm on the right path.
Hi all. Been away for a while. I wanted to restart The Ubora Project again but in the time since I was here last I lost all the data. So I have to start from scratch.
One good thing, I upgraded to Photoshop CS5 and Illustrator. So here is my first test to relearn how I did it. Any and all feedback will be appreciated!
Oh one other thing the name Ubora (which I thought I had made up) is actually Swahili for Excellence! LOL.

Ok after some adjustments and a few hours practice I think I have the technique down now.
Looks pretty nice, man.

Thank You! That was just the practice run. Now I need to look at land form sat photos for reference and get started back into it.
