    Looks pretty darn good to me, maybe the webs bit but that has been stated already. Might want to do some shading on the covered wagon top. Nice job.

    Its a very nice map.

    (This is really really picky stuff) I don't know if its the grid over top or something but it seems a little washed out. You could try some sort of grunge layer multiplied across the land, below the plants if you can. A shared slight darkening might pull it together and make your plants pop a bit.

    I don't see anything that I can say "this is wrong" though.

    Excellent map. I really like that road. That dirt looks familiar. You might use trees that don't have the transparency inside so all of the trees match. The ones with transparency are good if you have something underneath to see but I think full trees look better.

    Thank you all for your advices.
    I switched to non transparent trees. The point of using transparent trees was that the map is to be printed so I wanted to have more of the grid visible.
    But I agreed thaht it now looks better.
    I also reduced the brigthness of the webs and tried to make a less "top down" shading...
