First try terraining

[Sick]

My first try at making a decent looking playable area. I didn't use any imports so I realize that would make it look a lot better but I'm sure there are many many other things I could have done better than just getting better models.

So I'm looking for any tips to be better.

Trying to make playable RPG style terrain with no imports

Base Camp

Graveyard

Thanks but I'm sure you have to have some advice on what I could do better. I would love to hear some tips.

Use some custom doodads to have better results, avoid using Blizz cliffs.
Looks pretty good for ur first terrain, mine was 100x worse.

Thanks and yeah blizz cuffs look awful. Do you know of any good cliff tile textures that make them viable tho?

Are you sure this is your first Terrain Wip ?? :O!

The graveyards with 'wings' look horrible by default. Try replacing them with 'peseant graves' and add some variation to them. The first screen is great and creative.

Thanks for the tips ! when I have some free time with the editor I will defiantly try to incorporate that.

As I've recently been told, blizz cliffs don't look too bad as long as you've used them efficiently, like you've done.

You call this first terrain? Are you really sure!? REALLY!!?? This is more epic..... you really have the capabilities to become a great terrainer at that rate. +REP!

Shit, this is REALLY good for a first terrain. Keep up the fantastic work! I especially liked how you used the rocks in the third screenshot in conjunction with the rocky terrain palette.
