thanks,but I AM going bit-by-bit!
I started asking about the trees,but you guys wen't on about my entire MAP!
And when I finished the high-detail parts,I shall show them!
You will never be able to tell us what we should and shouldn't criticize. Sorry.
If we criticize things you haven't asked for critique on, that means something. In this case it mostly means that most people here cannot give good critique on the trees and detail because they think that the piece as a whole, colors, idea, etc., needs to improve before it is necessary to address detail work.
Like this, if I don't like the burning colors (which is true, I don't.), why would I criticize the tree? If I made a nice-looking tree with those saturated colors, would I be happy with the end result? No.
Which is why I, if I would give critique, simply wouldn't be able to disregard the colors.
So please, please, listen to what we have to say. If you disagree completely, then so be it. You're the master of your own art, and you may make it as you wish.
If we seem like tenacious bastards to you, it's only because we want to see you improve.
And of course you may go bit-by-bit, but get the fundamental bits down first of all, ok? Color, general shapes, etc.
Oh well, enough ranting. You know that I have only love and man-hugs for you, so don't pout :]
