The newest in my set of SQUIRE mockups, the ancient forest. The grassy tiles represent mossy bricks left in an ancient civilization where Dex will soon find a powerful boss. I liked the trees on this one especially, and I changed the leaves some too. Enjoy!

The tree trunks are quite nice, and I love the little guy. The baddies are quite well done also. As stated, the canopy is really flat and there are also a few light source issues. The bush and rock all the way to the left of the pic, and the two bad guys seem to be lit from the left, while the little guy and the tree trunks are lit from the right.
Thanks. I was definately going for more grassy areas as I've been workin on this today, and you should expect an update later this week. The leaves are the hardest part for me, however.
Trees are definitely much better, but the canopy needs much more variation and depth, it's very flat right now. http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/10195.htm Here's a good example of what you could do to help with that, and also a good example for a backdrop.
You also should add some grassy parts, rocks with some moss coverage, and maybe some branches for the trees?
