Some tiles I made

So... I made some tiles about a year ago and I never really finished them, so I figured I'd just put them on here. Tell me what you guys think.

I don't really like the grass, but the cliffs with the water look really sweet

Thanks, the grass was sort of a place holder until I did something better, the main concentration was on the cliffs and water.

The grass looks too soft, but otherwise the cliffs & water are great. You should make more when you get time.

You should probably look at the Esteria tiles before you look at mine. They don't look that close.

You make great tiles. But what you should do is make them ALOT more unique.. The result would be great feedback, and use of the tiles..
Maybe some slanted tiles/walls.. Like all the tiles in every tileset really, only has the front wall.. Maybe you should make them slant.. It would look great.

The water on the cliffs is nice, can't say I am a big fan of the grass or anything else.

Since when could you even place a pixel? lol

The cliffs rock madways, especially the water one, seriously awesome.

The water is somewhat curved, which isnt right if you look at the top of the cliffs, which are rather edgy. Also, some light reflection should be added to the cliff <-> water connection.

I've been doing graphics for years, it's just not what I'm well known for.

Not bad Tig.. although its obvious the graphics are created from graphictools.. but the overall feel of them is rather nice. But i've tested them out.. and oddly your tiles to really tile too well at all. o.O

No, they don't tile yet, and the originals were done in MS paint, then I went over them with the burn tool in Photoshop.

The burn tool can be a nice shading tool. It's nice to see you know how to use it because many people don't and their work turns out like crap.
