hi, your Picture is realy perfect but the tutorial isn't 
perhaps you can help me out and answer me these few questions:
1. how did you make you city like matel? it looks like a Iron city not like my stone city
2.where does the pieks from step 1.7 come? they are simply there
3. where does these table com from where your city stands on?
did not get farer than this
Guest says:
