Approach what? My last post was basically saying you're doing great.

 :o Ohh! Hahaha, thanks! I was asking how I would give volume to the rocks. I think if I edit it more I'm just going to mess it up (idk how to improve it).

Your lighting seems to be coming directly from the front, which makes it very difficult to give volume. Frontal lighting flattens everything, because there are no visible shadows (the shadows are cast behind the object, where we can't see them). So, if you want more obvious volume, you'd need to change the lighting to be more from above and/or from the side.

Ahh, I see. I will leave it as is since that's what I was going for. The dungeon one looks bad now compared to the rest I'm going to work on that tomorrow.

If I may add a little suggestion, on the forest background, the first two trees at mid distance looked very nice and got almost obscured by the new closer/larger trees, maybe you would like to bring them a bit more to the center so they appear a bit more from behind the closer trees.

I think you are set! I was looking into your tileset posts and really liked it, and I must say I am very interested in seeing the final result of your project :)
