Very nice.Except for one thing that probably have to do with that the picture is small.Those thingies I believe to be bushes or flowers looks like some sort of arachnid monster and I dont like arachnids. :(

Do you mean on ImageShack?If I click on the picture there I get to a upload page.
And yes, it's the bigger ImageShack picture Im talking about and not the thumbnail on the forum.

Or am I missing something basic and making an ass of myself?

Tarm, then what do you mean by "the picture is small"?

Unless you have a resolution like ~1920x1600 the plants should be recognizeable. ^^

@iru: Could you upload your train waggons?

If Im not mistaken the scale of the picture is not the scale that will go into the game.The scale of the picture does not look like the scale the game have to me.It looks smaller.If you encounter the bush/flower in the game it will look bigger i think.
Im talking about scale.The scale of the picture is not the scale of TMW.
Am I making any sense?

Well, the tiles are 32x32 Pixels, so...
...I guess thats it ;-)

Looks like it fits.
I also had the impression at first, I think its because of so many different tiles are so close together without free space / empty field to walk.
The huge rocks also give the optical impression of smaller tiles.

Of course it isn't, it's a tileset, not a map. (Alternative answer 2)

Yeah the scale might fit in that way.But give me a picture with the resolution the game is when I play.Or have you already and my perspective is really screwed up.It happens sometimes.Im not good at adjusting my eyes.

Edit : Put the arachnid/flower thing at the side of the player character and I might see the light. :)

I think its great, maybee another river-part to loosen up the pattern a bit when making a long river, but as for the finished parts, I only found a few mistakes / optical patterns, such as

and some small 1-2px offsets on some riverbits that arent visible though on the map.
