Overall Appearance: 6/10 - It's a bit too dark, units don't generally look good in terrains.
Theme: 3/5 - It's obviously underwater, but you could have done much better with things like bubbles, and fish.
Creativity: 1/5 - I don't see any creativity to really speak of. Many underwater terrains consist of Naga looking at the screen.
Technical: 6/10 - Some decent tile variation, and about the right amount of shrubs used, but the coral doesn't suit the rest of the terrain, and the lighting could have used more work.

Total: 16/30

Overall Appearance: 7/10 - Looks pretty good. The light doesn't look great, it never does at that angle.
Theme: 3/5 - Same as Grave Digger.
Creativity: 1/5 - Same as Grave Digger.
Technical: 7/10 - Good tile variation, pretty good use of doodads, but I didn't like how the terrain ended so quick. I guess it's hard to see underwater, but I get the impression that there's nothing beyond the foreground. You should have actually terrained past the fog, just to make sure it didn't give that ending feel.

Total: 18/30

Archipelago is our winner!
