I like the waterfall but when it reaches to the end and how theres that little river to the lake looks weird and push the sky back it looks to close it looks a little empty also maybe make it into a farm to fill up space? but all n all rating 6 a little better then a few iv seen lately but not bad.

It looks very empty. Maybe add more trees and what not. THe proportions are off as well. The rocks are pretty big and the trees are gigantic compared to the house. If your trying to get an effect of distance it didnt work very well. The grass also could be smaller because having big pieces of grass look odd. In my eyes everything just looks a little off and very empty. Just try to fill it in and maybe add some fog effects. Not to dense but just to add a lighting effect.

A bit better. However the sun seems a little small and misplaced. seems like it shouldn't be there. Maybe add some fog to add extra effect. If the sky is cloudy, and there is snow on the mountain tops there should at least be a little mist in the valley.

If all that water from the river continues falling down into the lake, wouldn't the lake get very big over time? You should make another river that leads the water from the lake to somewhere else.
magic is everywhere :p
and as i sayed in my first post none of my photo edit programmes could read the screenshots so i couldnt put any fog in it.

- try another texture for the mountains

- mountains are bare, add dods, like rocks at the bottom, also i think you "colored" outside where the mountain starts.

- and use different tilesets for grass, all 1 same makes it boring

other than that, pretty good.

muh gawd, beautiful now

the only thing that's wrong with it now is that rock on the far left, it needs another smaller model (or reduce size by a lot)

oh i forgot to say: if this is meant to be a winter (or semi winter) terrain add a snowing weather effect, you could add small patches of snow by the water

and about the texture, use a darker one, i don't think there are many good tiles for mountains.

EDIT - found another thing, the 2nd mountain top from the right, needs more snow, it looks too horizontal.
