The first terrain I show

[NarGalloth]

Hi.
I made a terrain of a marshland, and it would be nice if you give me your opinion. I'm not very good making terrains, and I want to learn more things.

Note: I am NOT using any imported models.

So, what do you think?

Looks pretty nice! What you should do is:

-Remove that gate, it looks silly (It has no function LOGICALLY).
-Raise the terrain in the background to prevent the "end of the world" effect.

Other then that I kind of like it, maybe changing the water to a more blue colour.

first i think change sky to change amostphere and remove the fountain and it will be prety good]
and i made wat a marshland should be like and no imported files.

Thanks for answering .

@Oziris: Well... that gate HAS a function. This terrain is from one of my campaigns, and there is a small village in the marshland. The rock in the middle of the image is hiding it. The gate forms part of the external part of the village. And the end of the world sucks in the image, yeah... Afortunatelly, in the game is not a problem. ^^

@dragonslarger: Yeah, the sky isn't very nice with the marshland... Maybe at night would be better. I have to try some skies. And, as I said before, the map is part of a campaign, so I want the fountain to be there. Anyway, in a no-campaign map, I wouldn't put that fountain there .
P.D.: That marshland you make... there is a lot of plants. It doesn't fit with the type of marshland I want to create. Anyway, it's nice.

Thanks for your advise! I wait for more opinions!

Regards

Here what you can do for a good sky without gay skyboxes is use elevators like this.

Step 1:Ok create a elevator on it's side by making a new doodad object then going to model file then destructible then it's down in the E's.

Example!

Step 2: Now then select your fog and choose what ever you want color wise then place your elevator doodad in the back or have heavy fog.

Example!

Step 3: Now you have Game View Settings on and you get your fog and your elevator blends in with it so no more gay skyboxes!!!

Example!

I was looking at a good view for marshlands and such, and this is what I found, I suggest you make those trees dead [not wc3 trees, but from custom tree resources] and yes make the water blue maybe light blue or anything that would fit the terrain's old/dirty/death like theme.

I made a little updade to the marshland. I changed the following things:
- I removed the gate and the fountain (only for the pictures).
- I changed the water color.
- I changed the sky.
- I made the screen at night.

But I don't know exactly which sky should I use. In the pictures I attached is the marshland with two different skies. Which one looks better?

The second one gives it a good mysterious, even an unexplored look.
