any other art programs like photoshop or gimp?
probably worth combining with another program in ur arsenal.
i personally use photoshop coz im used to that but cyangmou uses gimp and look at him go...

the point is combining P.E. with these programs offer lets u get a bit more artistic with ur tiles when u feel like it.
something to keep in mind for future perhaps.

I couldn't see the transitioning without resizing. (Sry I think I didn't mean what I wanted here - edit- )
The leaves on the rocks are not that much visible at first glance.
Instead of scattering the leaves, why not try to make the grass grow in between the rocks?

That's not a bad idea Lisandra, but maybe it shouldn't be instead of. An alternate set where the grass slowly fades into the cobble would be fun indeed. These transitions are harsh, so having the variety would be cool.

lisandra is correct that would look much better.

try to keep the grass in perspective, at the moment it looks like someone has cut the lawn too low and there are lawn clippings scattered on the ground.

the blades of grass on the rocks are too dark too.
there should be a few bright coloured blades scattered around to stand out against the dark rock.

I think is more like multiple transitions :)
Then you have more variations and your tiles will be even more cool

Hello, sorry for bursting into this thread,

You should have been made aware from your employee (Nico) that the tiles that were already made, were not made for him or for free use

It was I that created them as a WIP some years ago, please send your employee my regards and suggestion to refrain from using my intellectual property, I told him many times to not do this, but since its not yet worth it to take legal actions, all I can do is telling him.

He should stop trying to spend as little resources as possible

You are definitely not at fault, but it would be delightful if his developer(s) created the tiles from scratch


He is free to contact me though to buy them



I like the various attempts of creating crubblestone tiles though, your recent edits look a little blurred though

You are free to imitate the style and colorvalues though, but not in that very composition


In interest of your progression of improvement, you can continue creating sprites that revolve around imitating the style, once the rest of the environment is made, you could create new cliffs and whichever that would then match your style more properly and transmit a better homogenic feeling (as stated above)
