    MOUSE --- I start with three or four regular contour lines - Top/Bottom and a couple in between, then I just squiggle lines to inbetween them and some are connected between them, always connecting to an upper one.

    No Power Lines, as Robbie & others have stated, this isn't typical power that is generated, it's send over airwaves in pulses.

    Aaaah! So what I really need is some kind of reception tower of some kind

    We'll have to discuss how many orphans you need in return as slave labour... er... er... I mean helpers

    EDIT: I think I must have been ninjad by the author. A belated THANK YOU snodsy for explaining your technique!

    Fair enough, so we need some sort of receiver tower if we want some power. That simplifies things.

    Edit... and Mouse just said that too...

    Can you tell I'm at work and it takes 15 mins from when I read the thread last to when I actually post what I typed.

    Fantastic work. I really like your cliffs, I will attempt to emulate you on the shores of my patch.

    This is a beautiful map Snodsy

    Cheers,

    It is an exceptional map, isn't it

    Looking at it again, I think I might have made my own cliff much too dark, even though its facing almost directly away from the sun. I might try to lift the shadows a bit, so that my own neighbours don't find it too hard to match up with the tone

    I edited my post, hope it now works, I thought putting the Tag with the blue dot as a wip was what was needed, but I see I need to put ### Latest WIP ### before my image? Never good at this computer ****.

    Thanks Straf, I've only been here for a short time (2 years), guess I should figure out what all those icons mean
