 making this for this weeks challenge.
this is the progress so far.
First time ive worked on anything with less then 8 colours.

I really am not sure how i am going to do the water yet, or the background,

I just want to say how awesome this is looking! You have raised the bar early in the challenge and have shown how easily you can create multiple tones and textures with only 2 colours. Kudos!

The least that can be done with the hill in the background is define a bit of unevenness using the outline, because its generic form looks unfinished. Make it a bit jagged and it should look better.
