The new roof is nice, the trees are also good, though the branches seem to have something wrong with them.

Theo nly thing I dont' liek is the fact that the snow still looks griddy. It doesn't blend. Also the roof on the smaller house is way the heck too big for the house.

Blend the snow. It really looks blocky at the top of the leftmost tree. Other then that, the rest of the graphics are very beautiful, especially the chimmny and the sides of the roof.

This is only the first layer...there is still the gound, grass, water...you know other stuff to be put in.

Excuse the trees they have not been developed yet, they will change.

It is only two threads because it is only thing I have done to the new Winterfold. After tommorrow i will not be able to go on the internet for the whole holidays so I think its better now to show whats coming.

I will do another comparrison after the holidays with the completed graphics.

The new roof tiles are almost "holy cow are those ripped" good. The snow, as has been said, needs some serious work, but at least it resembles snow now, which is a step in the right direction.

I give full credit to David Kale on those map tiles. What a great job Dave.

I have to agree with moogle1. Those are brilliant.

*Any suggestions on the snow would be great...

I think Iblis was the first to suggest dithering in the OTHER thread.

Also notice blending the shades of the snow together was mentioned a couple times. That should create a good 'hilly' effect, but always remember where where your light source is.

Heh, the old graphics are almost painfully bad. Interestingly enough, though, Dogero's face (eyes and nose) hasn't changed.

But is that first screenshot Charbile's work or yours? It really doesn't say anything about either of you (in terms of progress) if the two are different artists.

those are some awsome changes, however I still see "grid" in the snow. my suggestion, get rid of it, and you will have yourself a nicely done maptiles. sort of like the SOJ2, you don't see "grid" there.
