Hello to all the fans of building, modeling, and creating! I'm rushing with the news that yesterday I managed to complete another mini-milestone! I was able to improve the majority of the logic responsible for terrain editing. A significant change is the introduction of new brush shapes. In the previous version, I only had a square or circular brush available, which made it difficult to achieve neat, natural shapes.

They allow the user to generate a basic terrain layout with a single click, which can be further customized.

Now, when pouring the diorama, the grass is automatically removed, and the appropriate texture is applied. Additionally, you have the freedom to blend this texture into any part of the terrain, resulting in a visually captivating and diverse landscape. Next on my to-do list is expanding the tools for taking screenshots. As everyone knows, there's nothing more enjoyable in creating dioramas than sharing your artistic achievements with others! Take care, and talk to you soon!
