Finally had a second to get more photos!

In the final stretch of crafting now, as you can see the islands, magnetic bushes and tufts are all done, as are the new grassland tile edges, including a solution for giving ugly square edges some beautiful curves! Albeit without the green layer of static grass on yet 😂
Versions of these edge curves for Mountainblocks hopefully incoming with the magnetic V3 of those, which I'm aiming to work on after this - just in case you've got mountains planned ;)
There's also a photo there of the curved clip on for hills, this is great for using them either with the rivers or on the edge of canyons and such using mountainblocks :)
You might notice the trees looking a little different - I've experimented with a new material as part of this project, GSW micro leaves. These are now flocked with the medium green which I think gives a much more vibrant and alive feel to the plant life than I got originally! I may keep a few with the original colours but I'm definitely tempted to give the others a quick recolour with these...when I have time™
Finally I zoomed out a bit - the lighting here isn't perfect, I had to set it all up downstairs because I really don't have the space upstairs right now - so please forgive the lack of black background and limited lighting 😅
You can see on that final zoomed out picture the difference in flow from the larger curves to the smaller, I really think this helps sell 'realistic river', as its rare that natural rivers look as 'copy-and-paste' as the average river tiles you see! they tend to bend at different angles depending on how the land flows and how hard the rock is :)
Oh, and the corners in the bottom right of this picture LOOK a little square - they aren't! it just looks that way without the water :) they actually curve in a kind of S shape, especially when used in a thinner river without the spacer tiles!
I cannot wait to get the first batch of resin done and start seeing those ripples 😁

This is an impressive, ambitious project; you are going to get endless use out of all of this! Your tabletop players are absolutely spoiled in the best way.

And to think it will only look BETTER with the resin!
