    Looking good @createtaiwan! You asked a good question on discord, figured I would copy it and my reply here so it doesn’t get lost:

    Do you have any suggestions on how to build a fence when the contour of the ground surface doesn’t exist yet? For now I am blocking it in based on what I see in the image, and guessing at where it might go off camera. I assume we will drop it into the master file next week and then later we can adjust it along the Z axis to make it follow the ground contour. Or do you have any better ideas?

    Great question. I would treat the fence like lego pieces:  Vertical planks with a pointed top and longer horizontal planks. Let’s say 3 variants of each. This way I can use those pieces to construct the full fence in the final assembly scene, conforming it to the contours of the ground plane.

    So for this week, I recommend building the lego pieces and doing a test assembly on a randomized ground plane as a proof-of-concept. I wouldn’t focus too much on aligning it with the art.
