since you're in a hurry, i'll be short 1 - fill it up more, this looks like dirt with some parts of grass 2 - add some lighter, more contrasty and yellower colours 3 - try to make some patches lighter and some darker and lastly: here's something that might help ya ------------- ▄▄█ ▄▄█ ▄█▄ ▄█▄ |

| thanks but actually it is supposed to be a bit old grass in dirt, and the one ihe sample picture is not realistic, it is too RPG. And i am not in SO hurry... |

How much more realistic can you get with such a small space? Got any samples of what your trying to accomplish?

I took the tiles into paint and put them together and they do look
pretty realistic as is, although you could probably use a bit of a
highlight color (but keep it dull) on the dirt, and a better shadow
color than the reddish brown spots you have right now. The shadows in
the dirt don't give it texture or anything at all, since they're few
and far between and are hard to see even when zoomed in. Looks like your edges aren't going to line up too nicely with the current patterning outlines of straight isometric, by the way. There's going to be that awkward line of 4 pixels at the top and bottom of each tiled piece and the empty block which is less noticable, but you may still want to fix it, on the left and right sides where the corners of three tiles would meet. ------------- http://punaji.com/">
