Comming good! Your getting the mood on a nice way. The grass, been abscured by the
blown dust, is 
almost perfect. Don't loose to much time on it. For the patio, place each slab with a
bit of jitter: 
some small, compared to the spacing, random translation and rotation. Maybe make the
clouds darker, 
they look like fair weather clouds.

The patio will eventually get replaced by a 'crazy-paving' macro, but I
haven't written it yet.  I'm going to work on the fence next, though I also
want to add another layer of grass in longer tufts around the shed and
fence posts to make it seem less well kept.

I like those ideas :)
I agree, longer grass around the shed and along the fences will probably improve the
overall feel.

Chris Colefax (http://www.geocities.com/ccolefax/) has written an include
that will "explode" any CSG object.  What's really cool is it isn't limited
to the pieces flying outward from a single point - they can be blown with
the wind and then fall to earth.  Might be helpful. :o)
