So I've been trying to redo the look of the old snow tileset from bw, with the green grass/brown dirt. agria dirt looks like a perfect fit. belshir grass light/dark works too, depending on lighting settings, though i 'feel' its not a perfect fit.

but i came here to say that blending the snow with the dirt is proving to be a pain in the ass. it just doesnt feel right. maybe its the lighting.

If you're looking to capture that look in particular, then this map would be a good place to look.

I took a crack at it myself, though it's on a map that's been postponed indefinitely. As for lighting I believe I used Phaeton, unless I changed something about it. You have to be careful though, since the visuals can quickly become noisy and distracting.

Just a little teaser of something that Icetoad and I are working on. Custom Skybox.

Seeing NewSunshine's snow was a sore reminder of how horrible mine looked. I think I've found something that I can be happy with, but it's going to take awhile to get that look on the entire map.

Stuff from my TLMC entries. One of them was scrapped, though.

Looks great but why are you using natural geysers on artificial terrain?

never really liked that "pebble" foliage. doesnt blend in well with any texture or terrain.

Just thought they looked better fit more with the map theme

Very early WIP.

On a side-note, would people be interested if I began a new map art thread and run the monthly showcase that Johannaz used to do?
