Lets see more iso/perspective maps!

Thanks again to Hapimeses for his mountain tutorial - I have (since watching it) done some good ones - these were done in a hurry but still using the same process. The forests were different attempts at perspectives and some other things.
I think I like the forest on the left best (against the mountains) - but maybe without the little tree shafts sticking out below. Thoughts?

I think it's great, been looking for more mountain/forest screenies. I like the one with the tree trunks the best, for iso anyways. The other ones look like giant bushes or something.
Make more

I tried my hand a bit after watching that tutorial as well. Turns out I really suck at drawing mountains. Going to have to practice that one for a bit.
I like the forest to the left as well, although I think it is because of the tree trunks. I don't think it'd look as good without them.
I like the trunks also, seems to go best with the mountains.
Can we get a tutorial on how you created the forest on the left?
I also like seeing the trunks. It reminds me of the Pete Fenlon maps for MERP (A good thing!)
Great mountains .. and great forests the trunks are the way to go
