Trying to develop some new trees for B&W map. I am planing to put this one on my webpage too, and its more of experimenting map, so i decided to place it here. No need for a new thread for that.
So anyway what do you think about that pines, i am wondering if it is not too dense ?

Did some small changes and added more trees and land features. To be honest, i dont like it. Something is amiss. It feels like separately, those are nice looking threes, hills, mountains etc, but they are not going well together.

To me its about the scale. The trees and grasses are huge compared to the mountains and hills. It's always a trade off since you really cann't make it accurate to reality (you don't have too either) you just want to represent the elements accurately. Reduce trees by 50% to see it that works, I got a feeling it might be more like 25% to get close and then it's the detail needed for the trees - look at Max's stuff you has a really nice balance.
I was thinking that may be the problem. I havent resize the trees yet to check it out. The thing is i was trying to make more of regional map with bigger trees. Should i go for bigger mountains then ?
I'd go with smaller trees and more difference in the height of mountains plus hills. Here's an element of reflexion that I was reading yesterday.
Thanks, i will play around with the trees then. I thought mountains are big enough but it appears they are not.
Used some spare time to made this. Maybe i will use it for some future maps. Colours are not well done, its more like half finished work

Made based on some some old cool looking compass. Thought will share
Awesome stuff, Voolf. Love the compass.
The subtle shading for the compass works well but it's a bit too clean to my taste.
Yep, that compass/sundial looks great Voolf
