6 - Start now the settlement , sometimes if you want to hide some houses behind a hill or mountain to have more depth of view... i work puting some houses, go to hill, maybe a mountain, come back and place more houses... alternate this process until i like the results.

7 - Note some possible tips on next figure: 1/ i use as i told place the houses (in a size that "my eyes liked"), after i place the mountain upon half of houses image to try get more depth. 2/ i normaly mirror all houses same direction cause the smoke in this case, give more reality as is same wind to all. 3/ jon roberts style all images have a kind of big aquarel shadow/mist in the end of the image, if you dont respect the correct distance, the effect from new one, over the last image.

4 - then i started to work with mountains from 1 to 3 in order, cause its "layer by layer" in a row. selected natural features - MEsa

5 - After i make all mountains on sector 1, went to sector 2. All time when working to mountains, i loose more time mirroring them, selecting a mountain to "match" with the previous and the next... spend a lot ot time doing this until i see a good result. Note to try to join lines between mountains and hills and cliffs etc... always make the draw more realistic and fluid. (my example is not so good, im remaking fast the map.
