Yeah, tell me about it.. I think I got off to a great start considering my level of experience (virtually none). Thanks for your critique on my stone path, and I'll surely add more tiles to break up the monotony. I was just wondering on the overall style between the two.
Is there any specific reason why you like the first one better?
On a different note, here's on an update on my tree:
->
What do you think? Takes up too much space? Lose the branch that curls around the tree? Too smooth? (That can probably be fixed later, though..)
I thought I would fare better drawing all the branches first (haven't done the main trunk splitting up into branches yet.) This takes more time, but it's good practice, and will probably help me with creating the canopy and creating an overall better end-result. Does everyone agree? C&C much needed, like always. The more mistakes I can learn from, the better.
Also, I think I foresee a problem with the styles of my art conflicting with each other, when used together, and I'm not really sure how to go about fixing that, but it isn't a problem yet, so hopefully it won't happen at all.
