A simple fix would be to shorten the trunk.

I dunno why I'm not a graphics guy but that dead trunk is awful. It just looks disproportionate and odd.

it does, indeed, look quite odd.

It looks quite good on the terrain tileset im working on.

Nice trees, it fit with that grass :O

Yea, not bad - but I'd still only shorten the trunk.

Not only this but the roots should go from being thick to thin, not thin to thin...just weird.

I think the tree is heavy on the left side. Maybe add something on the right for visual balance ? Possibly a limb on the lower right.

Shorten it, and you've got a winner in my books.

I believe they're called weeping willows - they usually lean to one side.

Looks odd and unbalanced to me.

Yeah, like everybody else has said, trunk needs to be shorter for it to appear to be in perspective. Nice work nonetheless.

It looks like someone needs to look at Victor's tutorial on making trees...

haha that was the greatest tutorial ever.

@ ziro, make the trunk shorter

The roots of the stump overlap in a weird place.

I like it, It could use some touching up though

Trees can be any shape, size, proportion... long as you shade it right. Should be a simple task. There is no correct way to make a tree, as long as you shade it right. :/
Yeah, common sense will tell you that branches and roots get smaller as they extent from the trunk. That's a given.

Looks fine in my opinion.

Seeds are usually the best way to start.

God, I love it when you do that. XD
