Afternoon Version

Night Version

I'm liking the angle in this terrain, pretty sweet.

Personally, though, I'd like to see you raise the camera a couple notches, so we get more sky and less "water" in our field of view,
and then to make the entire terrain a tad more interesting I think you should play a little around with lighting and fog. In a way of
keeping the "misty" feeling you've currently got and addd some sort of sun that's just barely making it through the fog to give off
a slight, but fading, glow.

Hmm, very good indeed. Seeing as how the bridge pillars are sorta showing through the water, I'd say you should do that shore/wall as well. Also, bringing out the bridge floor a bit more with a different material would probably benefit as, currently, the bridge seems too narrow, to me at least. And lastly, though not necessary, you could make a hill top or two visible in the background, just to add depth.

This should look more interesting now

That's a mite too intense, for my eyes.

Maybe you should try setting the time of day to night, add a darker fog and use the Glow models to regulate the fog in a lighter fashion?

I think a different set of trees would pack more punch. The trunks are kinda nasty. The grass is a bit too green, personally I would go orange leaning towards red. More interesting that way.

Also the shoreline needs a bit of spume as an intermediate.

I think I know a good tree model that'd fit better. Try this one, you can tint it to orange if you want to.

 

[Celaquil]

Agreed.

Meh, that's just bland and overdone. A more whitelike foggy terrain with some
early morning sun seeping through the fog seems to me like a more inviting idea.
Hence, disagreed.

The grass is a bit too green

Aaaand, agreed.

The night version looks much more awesome IMO. Nice work!

 

[Deleted member 212788]

That's A lot better, though I still think the bridge appears too narrow.

 

[Celaquil]

ENB?

Anyway, yeah, a lot better. Not exactly what I meant, but fuck that, this kicks ass.
- The final two B2M trees kind of stick out still though, I had this crazy idea, what if you tilt
them slightly toward the camera so the trunk doesn't show? Might make for a nice little effect.

Also, in my humble little opinion, those rocks to the right along the shoreline are some tiny
specks of eyesores, I'd either change them for something better, or try covering them up
in some fashion.

These terrains are very cool . But I saw a small problem . I think its much better If you put some decoration to water . It because It looks empty . I suggest that you may add some plants ,

 

[Naze]

Really well executed, huh! Too bad two pine trees in the front bear a long, thin and exposed trunk. That's what Keiji is talking about. Well, you also could simply change those two ugly trees that are spoiling such a great terrain!

Anyway, nice angle, nice sky, doodad placement, fog, etc. Maybe your terrain is lacking a bit of background hills, but maybe not. I like the way the view is turned towards the tower, due to the overall composition of the shot.

I think that's it, keep the good work!

Angle-ing those pine trees ? It will look like a fallen tree if i do that, so i decided to use the same pine tree. It still looks nice for my eyes.

Oh , and , Thanks Guys for your suggestions.

Awesome, I like the night version a lot, I don't know about that weird glow you placed in the day version. Now you could use a reflection on that water and I would also advise you to make a larger screenshot with anti antialiasing while you're at it.

 

[Naze]

Cool, the small angle you added looks pretty nice.
