Vus Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I like them a lot! Very nice work! I think the second tree could use a bit more leaves, especially on the left though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azkanan Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 The palm tree looks like it's been stepped on; it's too flat and you can see too much of the top of the leaves. It looks like I'm viewing the top of the tree from a bird's eye view, but I can see the trunk, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shouldn't be able to see so much of the branches under the boughs, and the sides could do with more depth of shading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 ![](https://hostr.co/file/Sbg9iqBolzTu/tileshelp.png)**1.** The roots, or part of the trunk that is going up, but seems to disappear around the back… not sure where it went. I think you need to have it continue around, and sort of wrap up the trunk.**2.** The top of the cliffs and the base to not match, shape-wise. It somehow splays outwards at the bottom, creating a really weird perspective.**3.** Because of the way your cliffs look (they look fine), it's a bit hard to understand that the ground above them, is actually above the rest of the ground. Try lightening up the ground up there to help signify the height difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I only have one bit of advice for the palm trees, generally when you think of palm trees you think of large leaves the look smooth and bend downward, the only thing about your palm trees is that the leaves seem to turn upward. Everything else is great, there's a huge amount of improvement from the first post though, great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the tip of his palm tree leaves look like they turn up a bit. I haven't seen any palm trees that do that before. Anyway, Major the actual owner of the topic, I'm just suggesting maybe you try multiple types of palm tree, I still think the graphic of the tree overall is good though so it doesn't matter either way.

Link Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 One thing I thought I should add, just for your benefit, maybe on the same tileset recreate the tree you use but make it slightly different, maybe a branch here and there or a birds nest or something like that, if you get what I mean? Just so that every tree on the map doesn't look the same and repeating, In my personal opinion I'd try to be diverse as possible when it comes to rpg games, if you study games like ff7 or Zenovia and such..they add as many details as possible to give the map a more realistic feel, they'll have the same looking trees, but the trees or such might have different details to give them an individual feel such as reality, not every game does this I guess, but it's still and rpg so it wouldn't be reality per say.I hope I'm not giving bad advice, I just think it would help you more.
