It looks okay... on the second one... you could add a dock or something... the trees don't look so natural on the tile either...
| |
In the second picture, the tree should not overlap the building on the left... The perspective is wrong there...
The building's roofline begins at two tiles above the ground, but the tree's trunk is only 1 tile high (actually, less than that)... Therefore, the building is taller than the tree, and the tree shouldn't overlap the roof... | |
1. add more tyoes of fruit in the market type place
2. the tree out side should be bigger to overlap teh roof 3. add wood chip type gravel under the trees on the stone outside 4. in picture two, have the grass have edges on adjacent squares so they dont just start out of nowhere | |
The trees need shadows. I know you are using RM2K icons, but I strongly suggest you don't.
As for mapping, I'm going to tell you a secret: Wide-open space==bad. Pack your areas with detail, and leave no wide open spaces. Huge, empty areas will just become boring later. | |
Umm, you could have that grass in the lower picture overlapping onto the tree and the cobblestone.
I'm sure someone's going to complain about the icons but I've never really seen anything wrong with them, whatever works works.
