Thank you for the warm welcome and advise! It's rare to find such a friendly community anymore. The lighting honestly isn't very good. I had to Photoshop it to look that good! I hope that's not against any rules! (I did read the forum rules)
Again, any and all comments are graciously accepted. I do have much to learn. (I did, though, read that amazing tutorial on building a medieval village.)
I took your advise adding the brook/stream and I ended up doing a small hilly bank. I used up just about every green, brown, and grey block I own so I don't think I can do much else to this....
Please let me know what you think.
