Independent Learning-Anqi Yuan

In order to make my Unity project, I have learned a lot from Lynda courses and also online tutorials.

I used "smooth look at" to make the dragon face to the...

Maybe try more grass texture. I added two wood houses and some farm objects like cart, firewood and boxes, and they all look...
