Today I’ve created the grass land and a road. The road is really really cheap, but I will need to remake it anyway, once I can see it in a hexagon grid. Why? It needs to be connected, and I will not do it blindfolded, if I have no hexagon grid yet.

Modeled my first tree in pixelart. Actually, I did more then one tree, one moving tree and one woods tile
