World of Curunir

[Jykke]

i like the original more than the tweaked one. Somehow it looks a bit better.

Ever the nay-sayer, I must admit I prefer the second one. There's something I like about it, the hint of very-realistic looking isometric forests, despite the very non-iso mountains. Somehow, stylistically, it just gels with me in a way your original forests do not.

I am leaning towards the second style as well. It would be a more symbolic look for the forests, and due to the nature of your map that would be in interesting mix of realism and symbolism, but I think it just works. Ideally (in my opinion, of course), it should probably be somewhere in between style 1 and style 2, to retain the sense of realism, but add a shaggy edge to the forests that gives it a more tree-feel.

If that makes sense.
