Hello all,
I'm posting here so I can recieve some critiques and such on something I'm working on for this site:ISOCITY

I'm thinking of adding a dragon wrapped around the rock, and possibly adding a smoke animation coming from it's nose, but I'm not sure. Any suggestions, comments, and crits are much appreciated. :)

The colors might need a bit more contrast than that.
Before you get too far along, the rocks and ground stones are not isometric.

Not very constructive but okay...I'll be sure to work more on my colour palette seeing as this is still a work in progress. As for it not being isometric, I have had one person assure me that it is. Is there any way you could tell me why you believe otherwise and possibly how I could fix it?

Thank you for spending the time to post :)

Contrast is low and needs to be upped, I can't elaborate on my opinion here much more than that unless I get really technical which I didn't have the time when posting :/

I am not the best at this but the rock pile doesn't appear to be isometric as do the ground stones. Even organic shapes need to have a basis on the grid as the eye can't be fooled on this.

Sorry should have specified that I only found the brief explanation that it wasn't isometric to not be very constructive. As for the palette I know it needs a lot of work x')
