Winter Village style development (March 2022 CA issue)
Things are progressing with the tiled half of the set. This is a 'Map file test', where I set up the new buildings in a circular array to check that the map files are working as expected. The buildings on the outside edge haven't been finished yet. I've tried to take on board all the useful and helpful advice from earlier in this thread - in particular the photographic evidence.

WIP: Orchish Hoard (First Overland Map)
That's a pretty cool map :)
The only suggestion I have is to activate the Blend Mode on the FOREST SHADOWS sheet, and set it up a bit like this. That should prevent the shadow patch under the woodlands dominating the woodland areas so much. Here is a before and after jungle woodland.
I also doubled the blur from 10 to 20 between those two shots.
There is still a shadow, but it doesn't stand out quite so much.

@jslayton LOL! And thank you :D I think I will leave them as they are for now, because you are right - darker and they lose the arched feel ;)
@mike robel Thanks Mike :) I'm sorry to hear you really don't like snow all that much! I think you aren't alone, though. I love the beauty of a snowy scene, but I'm one of those people who get near-frostbitten fingers the moment I step outside.
