### Form a three-dimensional landscape ¶
Still the island we created is as flat as an airport. To make it look more natural, we should create few threedimensional forms, like hills, mountains, slopes,... ¶

To do this, we begin with the noise height tool: ¶

Image | Description ¶
----- | ------- ¶
![editor-tutorial-noise-height-tool.jpg](/wlmedia//wlimages/Editor-tutorial-noise-height-tool.jpg) | The noise height tool sets a random height at the point(s) you click at. In the menu you can choose between which height the tool might randomly choose. <br /> With this tool we now create some hills and slopes. ¶

Than we higher the mountains with the height-tool: ¶

----- | ------- ¶
