Course looks an absolute belter.

Windy setting seems mandatory.

[garynorman]

One more hole to lay out...

 

Here's the tee shot on the 15th.

Absolutely wonderful.

You are making me very excited about this course and the potential you are showing what can be done on CF.

Really looking forward to hopefully hitting a number of punch shots under the prevailing wind

Absolutely love the heathland grasses. Only thing I've noticed is your bunkers could use some smoothing, unless you're intentionally going for a rugged look, and, your ocean looks like it's flowing out instead of crashing in, which can hopefully be fixed by just rotating the prefab 180 degrees?

Nice work regardless.

Thanks Chris, I'll take a look at the ocean issue...

 

I haven't really done any work on the bunkers at the moment other than placing and basic elevations.  I'm really hoping for pot bunkers to be doable soon...

Couple more screens:

 

By this point your round could be in ruins too

 

 

This is the proposed splash screen

 

[nightowl]

Luscious!

[Dazmaniac]

Liking the proposed splash. Simple, yet sets the scene perfectly.

 

The one above wouldn't be a bad pick either.

This really looks like something special. Superb artistry at work. - can't wait to play it.

[garynorman]

Hopefully I'll have it ready for initial testing within the next couple of weeks...

 

I have been playing around with the bunkers in an attempt to make something resembling a pot bunker.  I think that these may be a little large, but I'm reasonably pleased with how they look:

epic Mr. N, just epic

Apologies if you're getting bored of all the pics, but now we have the free cam I seem to spend most of my time finding nice views instead of play-testing!!!

 

Here's a couple more, from the 9th and 10th greens respectively:

Don't set the bar too high with your first course!

Remember, everyone will expect the next one to be even better!!! 

[NoPutt]

Stunning! Terrific work Gary, should be a blast to play

I love the textures and grasses that you've used. Very natural looking course. Great work.

We are NOT getting bored of the pics!

[Mike Jones]

Confirmed, nowhere near bored with the pics yet - more please 

[Jimbobh]

Love the look of the blends around the bunkers. I can't get mine to look anywhere near that. would love to see your method of how you achieved this.

[tlvx]

Nice course. How long is it going to be from the tips?
