+1 the mix should be 1 drop of googled textures and 100 of artistic feeling.. but u may not match the community agreement!

1 of 2 is looking better (original COD trees?)

throw a splatter of browns into the trees and darken the ground a tad and things could be well on the way


shots in post #242...

ground (original COD textures ?) is looking "toned down" but still too yellow - even though it is an example shot of what darkening the trees does

pict 2 of 2 on my last post is with darkened trees.
the green patch below the trees is original untouched.
The ground textures are quickly modded from google earth, just put togheter an photoshopped a bit. Starting picts are in post #235 #238.
What drive me crazy is that I made this little attempt in 40' mins; is it possible that in 6 years devs have not been able to do better?

i think colourwise the second shot with the darkened trees looks way better than what we have now.
