    Yeah I think its pretty good. Its a good basic map for playing a game on. Sure theres a few things we could do a little more with but it wouldn't transform it drastically. I like those black outlines in a kind of cartoony kind of way too. I think you have done well and I am glad you posted it.

    I think that the problem with the headstones is that the mounds don't look like mounds, or freshly dug areas, they look like shadows going the wrong direction (look closer the headstones have a shadow going with the other shadows). I only have 3 bits that I'd tweak...I like the pattern for the trees but the trees lack 3d depth like the roofs so maybe a black airbrush around the edges to give it some depth; the road looks a lil rough; and erase the bits under the frame that poke through. I like the color scheme and I think it's a very nice map, all in all. Pretty good job, keep 'em comin.

    Thanks for your tips and compliments. I made this map to see if i could
    I'll be improving it a bit in the comming day's but i'll probably focus on a new map and a different style, thats just my way of learning.

    The shadows and highlights on the roof are quite work intensive, i guess i could play with a bevel, but i think that looks a bit plastic.

    Any tips for easy building shadowing?
