Random Observations
* is that the actual landscaping plan? Trees look very uniform. Are they just defining the 'edge of the world'?
* is there no eco area? Like, a lake or dam or park or sporting oval/reserve?
* are the houses all the same colour?
* no street lamps?
* a gate or big blocky entrance sign to the estate?

Brief, two fold, one to give the developer an idea of the overall scheme and secondly to sell the scheme and impact to local counsel.

I was only given the master plan and basic plans and elevations of the 5 different houses. Yes the colours are the same to tie them into the development.
Good point on the uniformity of the trees, will randomise them more.

Idealy I'd like to have proper photography but as these things go theres not budget for it. Would be nice though.

I like the idea of the entry statment

Thanks, good to know, I thinks its the cost of a helicopter thats put him off, as he was quite specific in that it must be an aerial view. Maybe when we get to do the marketing views I could convince him.

I would also make the pines thicker and lusher as you are randomizing them. Maybe add color to some of the foliage or plants.

Also, .....Maybe fade to another color beside green. I think the green is to close to a landscape color, and since the outlying landscape isn't there, it might be better to avoid that relationship all together.

Thanks, I am always in two minds as to how to deal with this situation, Do I forest it up or fade out to a colour. You are right there is too much green. White would be too harsh though, any thoughts?

Very nicely done!

My CC. I see this was mentioned, fade the background or use another color/technique and randomize the trees.

What we sometimes do, and maybe works better in an urban environment, is keep the surrounding environment as a grayscale massing with a grid texture on it that fades into color as we get closer to the subject.
