    With ponds, don't ever get a basement going under one. Even if the pond is only knee deep, and you are building the fourth basement. If the basement goes under the pond, the game camera will get all wonky whenever it gets under the pond.
    With that terrain, you don't need anything on the porch beside a rocking chair.
    Add a few fireflies. By night, they are magical. Dragonflies are also nice. That log is home to some turtles. You can try to catch frogs in that pond.

  • @petalgrower2599
    @petalgrower2599 Před 2 lety +3

    I really liked this build--it's probably one of my favorites! I think the more "cluttered" look (to use Kayla's term) actually looks more lived in and realistic. While watching this video, I made an observation, too. Seems like whenever Kayla does shell tours she always admires the excellent use of clutter, but she rarely uses that much clutter in her own builds. It would be cool to see her challenge herself to use more clutter/layering like she did in this build!

    So I had a thought in the chimney situation. What if you placed a sized up chimney on a taller platform (half walls to get matching stone/brick)? It would raise the chimney up without the clipping. You can also drop a roof down to platform height if there is a size mismatch.

    • @charitycodes

    Since you inspired my to start building, I can give you my pond tricks ! I always use brown terrain pain INSIDE the pond cause mud yk and I like to put a lot of stuff around my ponds like grass and little bushes so it doesn’t look so flat. Sometimes I also raise up the sides of the pond to give the lot a little more texture. I also like the layer the weird algae thingy and sometimes I even “decorate” my ponds with ducks, debug boats (from university) or the nice city living candle floats ! Your pond looks really good, I’m into it ✨
