Help me improve - Barren Theme [without imports]

[Mantis_Style]

Hi Guys,
here we go again, but now with Barren Theme. I tried to make something like a garden in the deep forrest, just check the screen and you'll know what I mean. Please keep in mind that I don't want to use imports. Tips for improvement are always appreciated.

Barren Theme

 

[Solaris]

I like the light and the racoon before the crypt.
But since it is a barren landscape, I think the crypt
doesn´t fit very well in there. Also the blue mushrooms
are out of place and the log does not fit, cause the trees
look more like palms (you could flip the barrentrees).
A bit more open sky would be good, cause barren
lands should not have that much vegetation I guess.

Btw what are the small yellow lights?

It's so brown! Add more color to it.
I'm not sure I like the moon rays. Doesn't fit right in my opinion.

Thanks.

Mh, okay, I'll think about something else to put there.

What do you mean by flip the trees? Edit: I'll checked your thread, this is done.

lands should not have that much vegetation I guess.
I'll work on that.

Btw what are the small yellow lights?
Maybe fireflies? I don't know, it looked good, so I insert it.

Actually, there should be more colour variation, but it seems to be too dark to see them. :/

Hm, maybe some critters or creeps outside the fence.
Maybe change moonrays with sunrays and add some lightning, or more torches (with the light effect).
Anyway it is awesome

ok first of all W T F i mean barrens in a forest :S hmmm about the terrain itself i dont know of those blue mushrooms fit with evrything else also make the hero player brown since the glow fits more with the terrain. About the crypt hmm you recolored it to make it fit with evrything else yet it isnt good enough. And last but not least its barrens!!! i dont like barrens/forest xD it just doesn't fit

Update

• Removed the crypt and added the totem.
• More colour variations for the grass.
• Changed the light, weather and fog.
• The green mushrooms are darker now.
• Removed some trees and pitched them.
• Changed Rexxar's teamcolour to brown.
• Other perspective to show the sky.

Looks way better now although i still dont like how you used barrens with making som forest xD but thats just me lol

Edit: what about making a spirit walker at the totem? the spirit walker that is transparant not the normal one

@i_brg_doom
No, you ain't the only one, barrens is more a desert then a forest but, hey, there are Oasis too, who knows. Yep, a spirit walker in the spirit form would be good.
Hm.. kinda reminds me... Add water, maybe? :/

 

[Mantis_Style]

It's hardly a forrest, just because there are a few trees. I just used the word "forrest", because I wasn't able to describe the way I spammed the trees in my first try. Actually I wanted to create a landscape dominated by grass, but it seems as if I failed.

Isn't the spirit form an ability? As far as I know it is not possible to show this in the world editor, you have to start the game to see the effect.

To be honest, I don't want to use water on this one.

 

[Dr. House]

It is a forrest imo and else just call it Som terrain or A landscape? somthing like that.
