Maybe. Alternately, if you just select the top halves of the posts and squish them down with the scale tool. It's looking nice overall!
    The problem is, the isomorphic projection forces everything to be at the same scale, regardless of distance . SH isn't trying to figure out how to scale the objects -- but how to indicate distance despite the fact that the challenge doesn't allow the use of perspective.


    SH -- when I looked at it, I immediately saw the hill as a hill -- I think the diagonal shaded portions do a good job of given the impression of the elevation change.

    Thanks. Then maybe that's all that needs to be done with that. The only other thing I can think of is to remove the portion of palisade along the path from the top of the hill to the bottom. The idea being to have the two separate areas indicate the change in elevation.
