In the fist shot, the mountains left and centre are two tiles high, yet when you follow them around to the right it changes to four tiles high. Is the north path going up a hill? If not, the elevations should be consistent. Fix this by making the mountains at the right two tiles high, e.g.

JIkYztq.png

 

In the second shot, where the top and bottom mountains connect to the right of the pond it looks like the change in elevation is two tiles, which is the same as to the left of the pond. So the ground around the pond should be level, but south of the pond the elevation changes. It makes no sense. Fix this by changing the far right column so the top and bottom mountains are on the same level, e.g.

I see what you mean. I took your advice and fixed them both. How do I post screenshots? imgur and others wont work here. Site says they are not allowed.

Imgur works, but you need to link to the actual image file, not the page that hosts the image file. The easiest way I've found is to upload to Imgur, right click the screenshot and select "open image in new tab" or "copy image address" or something like that. That'll give you a URL that ends in .png, which is what you link to here.

Looks nice but I noticed a lot of your screens appear a little empty. Can you add dungeon borders or more decorations so they aren't as empty?

 

Also thanks @Noel.

 

Here's some more shots:

I'm just learning this tileset (Vintage Dreams) and adding decorations is on my list of things to do.

For the record, I'm not sure if dungeon borders exist or I will have to create them.

Hopefully I will get better at this as I work with the tileset.

Fair enough, still not a bad shot. Also it looks like page 58 of Vintage dreams has dungeon borders.

That looks brilliant Sheik. I really like the effect with the trees in the background as well.

Great atmosphere, especially in that first screenshot. Simply very aesthetically pleasing!

Where did you get those skull rocks? Would you mind if I nick them?

I edited them out of tMC graphics. You are welcome to use them for your own stuff!

Thanks for the feedback and also thanks for the likes everybody.

Thank you, I'll gladly make use of that since those are probably the neatest skull rocks I've ever seen. I'll be sure to give you credits

Need an opinion on these gears, and if I can make them better?
