They're coming from the tree's, man!
 

Making this for a tileset for a newish server :o

Im sorta stuck with what to do with it right now, not to mention I'm horrible at working with textures (the trunk o.o!)

Anyone have suggestions? x3

I know that the bottom layer of leaves look funny too.

I'm liking the leaves, but will they be a little more detailed? Not really liking the trunk and I have no advice cause I'm horrible at making trees lol, sorry. :(

You need to give the top of the tree more shape. For example, gradually making the leaves lighters as you geto the top centre. Otherwise, looking good :)

so cute, the roots seem too soft though

I've browsed a lot of the work around here and everyone is falling into the same pitfalls : Contrast. You've gotta be more confident with the jumps between colours.
Heres an example i hope you did not mind me editing! It's not neceassarily any better than yours but is mainly showing what contrast can do to bring it off the flat environment a bit more.

that's really nice :o, however

Reminds me of the igloo rock ;)

Contrast also lays in the trunk. I've added a highlight to the canopy however which detracts from the amount of contrast played on the trunk.

Try going on google and look up "demystifying the greats" it has a great tutorial for making trees. Let me know if that works for you :D

...you added like 200 colors.... :(

nah :) not that many! but if you understand the concept behind what I did and not exatly what i changed, then you can get the same kind of results :)

i like the contemporary colours in your original one, but i do like the contrast in the second one.

Why is that a big deal? If it looks nice, I don't see why colors matter. Then again, I know nothing about graphic design.

~6kb vs ~26kb, I think. Then again I agree, it's almost 2010...we're almost all on broadband.
