Or for free, like the bread inside ancient Roman collosseums was given
free to the people, too. The emperors did that in order to gain favor of
the masses. So Thomas de Groot would gain the favor of his (virtual)
people... ;-)

No, I have no part in this at all (happily). The local Satrap, who
represents the Sultan in Neoilion, is entirely responsible. I am
informed that parasols are not free indeed and that bringing your own is
punished by a jail sentence and twenty lashes.

It is looking good. But where is C.M.O.T. Dibbler? I am sure I saw him
earlier. ;-)
How long did it take to render and how big are your scene files? If you
don't mind me asking.

As a matter of fact, he is strolling in the stoa area, in front. The
place to be for refreshments and wenches of all kinds.

Render took five minutes; difficult to tell about the scene files, but
in this version I estimate roughly about 112Mb or a bit more for the
architecture (visible or partially so in the render). The height_field
itself is trivial.

But some whisper behind the hand, that this sultan has some strange
similarity with Thomas de Groot. And is there not a cream-white silken
turban in your wardrobe? :-)
Of course, it might be wrong what the people of that sultanate whisper.
But who knows the truth...

I am looking for a height field editor for my Lego scenes. I need
something where I can select a vertex and raise/lower it in steps of 24
units. I don't think this tool exists. :(

As far as I know, the only way to do this would be to convert the
height_field into a mesh and edit that.

If I were you, I would watch my back. There are assassins on the way... ;-)

Here the connection with the Greek part of the city is visible.
For those interested: render time 3 minutes.
