That's what I meant. Either maybe have the trunks fully lit or in complete shadow? Thanks for clarifying John!

Yea I was actually thinking about this. I'm reworking that map a bit, gonna check this out.

I think Sarah was saying if there were not shadows on the cut part of the stumps (I guess fully lit?), then it would perhaps be clearer this is a cut away, rather than a stump that is being shadowed by leaves?

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Unfortunately I don't know how else could I represent a tree. I cant show it's whole trunk, I have to cut it in half for the purpose of showing the trees position.

First of all, I love the little fire flies, flowers, shrubs and stone you put on the ground. Those little details are why I love your maps above everyone else's! To me, the spacing is alright. It does look uniform but I think that's because it's a bunch of dots on a page and we're built to see patterns, like they look zig zaggy to me. The one note I might add is about the shadows directly on the slices of trees. It makes it look a bit like they are all stumps and this is a cut down forest instead of a living one. But other than that I really like this map!

This is the thick, deep forest part, I will bring modular smaller ones with clearing and with some other interesting stuff on them.

I like the concept, but the spacing feels much too regular. Maybe break it up a bit with mini-clearings and some dense forest with more obscured trunks?
