The Ruins



DESCRIPTION
The Ruins is an old project that I had shelved about halfway through its completion months ago. Feeling that it would be a shame to discard the work , I finished it, creating two versions, Winter and Springtime. Both lots are almost identical except for the textures and the subtle variations to the landscaping.

I had designed both lots for placement along a low coastline so that their backs would appear to sink into the sea. However, one can easily position them atop a higher area incline so that look as if they emerge from the cliff wall. Your preference

*Note: Please look at the attached picture below (displaying the slope and placement tips) and locate a similarly sloped area in which to place the lot. (For general play, it’s best not to deposit either lot on a flat surface, as this could distort the terrain surrounding them and cause the camera angle to jump.)

*NOTE: NNNNatali’s beautiful recolors did not package with either lot and so you will need to download them and apply them to the vegetation as I have in the pictures provided.
