Hmm, feels like you need a tile that's kinda "empty" to counter that highly detailed vegetation. The tiles look great in combination with the cliffs and such but I'm not sure about using it as the main look.

Besides that, treetops look a bit squareish and although the trunks are really well done there's just something conflicting when in combination with the treetop.

Awesome work though. 300x better than the stuff I threw together for the contest game.

Would you say the green canopy conflicts with the green vegetation colors?

[Archem]

Agreed, the grass is too densely detailed. make it pop less. Lose the hard darkness.

[drenrin2120]

I'm aware the cliff edges don't round out. I'm also considering recoloring the canopy to a less vibrant green. I recolored the grass tiles lighter and with less definition and the tree trunks darker.

[Archem]

The grass looks a lot better. Now work on the inorganic square treeline and cliffs.

[Moosetroop11]

Yeah, the grass looks great now.

[drenrin2120]

This is my last for today. I probably won't be changing the cliffs much, but I agree with the canopy, it's bothering me too.

[fruckert]

Idea!
I'd put the darker grass underneath things.
It looks shadowed.
So, under trees and such.

[drenrin2120]

The darker grass is under the trees, but that tree is one solid 16x16 square. The other darker grass is an auto tile. I could move things around.

I think it looks really great, especially with the multi-tiled grass.

My tips: Make the canopy more rounded rather than square. I think the main issue with it is that it has no 3d depth to it, and just looks like a big block of leafs on top of some trunks. Going for more of a pine tree look might work well too.

The grass looks way better now.

The water looks pretty good (maybe a bit too detailed, but good), but the dirt needs to have less of that dipping in the sides. Also, it looks rough, like rocks, and not quite dirt-like. Not exactly sure how to fix that.

There were more pics, but inageshack is glitching up, making me unable to upload in bulk.




The time is your breath, will count in battles too.

There is more, there is a wall off screen that surround the place.

Looks nice, although the harsher outlines of the castle, cacti and individual trees do make them stick out oddly.
