[Gandwarf]

Well, download models like these and have a look at how they created roads:

Long live Google Sketchup!

(edit: I just downloaded the model from the last link. I must say: wow, what a great fantasy town! He even made two versions of this town: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehou...bc&hl=nl&ct=lc)

You could always just import an image to use as the base. Make a quickie map in Photoshop (or something) so that you can get some nice grass and roads then save it as a jpg (or something) and then import it into SU as a flat plane and then scale it up to suit.

I had totally forgotten that I could do that! I could make the base in CC3 and then model it in SU!

I decided that It would look awesome in the castle was in the middle of a lake. I think that I'm going to make this a military fort with a few buildings instead of a town. Here's a few renders of a copy with a bridge and some water. I might work on the outer wall tomorrow. However, if I can get Ascension's idea to work well, I might end up starting a whole new copy.
