Well, here is my next offering, I still workign with the texutres, I am figuring that this, with a little more tweaking, will be my texture. I don't know if you want them on a on the model or you want to see the flat textures.
I don't know what more i can add, I figure most people don't see my work, I think i am doing a good job of following the guide line given, but I haven't got to much crits on anything i have done, since I started this.
In the end, it is just nice to be here with all on you doing something we all enjoy to do!!!
Take care,

The shapes look really interesting, the texture is fun aswell. However, it seems a bit gimmicky the way it is like the whole landscape has been painted with a single pattern... very unrealistic, it really detracts from the modelling and believablity IMHO. I'd really love to see some more elements at work in your image, such as a sky / atmosphere for starters and maybe some interesting lighting.
Another point which I'd like to make is that the hills / mountains and even the main elements in the middle there really looks like it has been stuck onto a regular vanilla groundplane. It almost looks like plasticine models layed out on a flat surface. What it needs is either some more natural variation and undulation of the main ground plane and defintely something to merge the ojbects together a bit more.
Keep going mate. Like you said, it's ultimately all about the enjoyment. Good luck!

Well, he is my lastest, I hope to upload my final image soon, there are a few more things I want to do. but I also feel I taking this as fast as I can and since there is must time left I guess that is a good thing. It has been fun read posts about other people work, I post a few myself, nice to see everyone progress on their own work over the alloted time. so if i for get to say it later it been a pleasure.
