As I am updating this I'll show off some new things that went in. This update is all about landscaping & trees. I have fallen in love with the new Creative Gardens mod by frogprincessQ4and what it brings to the land. More trees and groundcover than your vid card can handle. This area is poly dense already. More than a few types of trees in the mod will bring your machine to a crawl if you are not carefull. The best thing about the mod is the quantity of flora to be had. Time spent in the woods has taught me that there is a huge variety IRL, just not in the same 10 foot square parcel.

This a is just an overview. I took out or moved many of the brush & trees that were originally there... replaced by CG pieces.

Out in front of the small greenhouse (now barely visible) is a grove of bright green trees of various sizes.

All of the small flowering bushes add to the scene. I used perhaps 3 different colors through the whole area.

The barrel is there just as a marker for the edge of the build area. This whole section was almost stripped to bare ground.

Continuing out back into the woods.. I had to move a lot of the bigger tress out away from the house because the branches were clipping through the walls. This view is from behind Mac. looking towards the graves and back of the house.

All these trees and brush plants were hand placed. If you plan on building something similar, bring wood & fertilizer.

Out near the rear door is a Torii Gate. The Japanese aesthetic fits in so well her IMHO. Thanks to AWARHERO for his mod... the lights get used the most.

The lighting back in there is superb.
