In Second Life many landscape are bland and uninteresting, smooth simple curves and rounded ridges. Well real-life landscape has crinkles!Crinkles can be added using the landscape brush. Use the medium or small brush depending on the size or your hill or vallley.
I usually start by adding ridges; using the raise brush, start sweeping it from side to side at the bottom of the ridge and work upwards making the side to side motion smaller and smaller. Repeat this a few times till you have a good looking ridge.
Move along to where another ridge will look good then raise another one until you have a decent set of ridges. High hills have fewer ridges spaced further apart.
Add dips and hollows between the ridges using the lower brush and starting at the top this time work downwards.
After a bit of practice it is easy and fund to do.
If you want to see how it looks, visit Tanglia and enjoy the Welsh style coastlines.

Hi Talia, thanks for linking to my blog. I will most certainly visit Tanglia (I do love Wales!) C.
Seven weeks ago and after reading your lovely blog I put a piano in the bar. It has been used quite a bit since then. Thanks for the inspiration.
Ooooh, a piano? Even more reason to visit! See you soon...
