  • You literally state in your documentation that you were basically going to make this regardless of what the theme was, and then tried to shoehorn the concept into one of the provided themes. As a result the representation of the theme is unsurprisingly a bit weak and amounts to a sign and some bunting. This is a shame because the work is quite nice. Think about how some of the patterns on the wood would be created - carved, in a lot of cases, and how this would interract with the texture of the wood grain. Watch also for stretching textures too much when using trim sheets. Would have been good to see a bit more about how you made the trees. It's a bit of a shame you put a lot of work into the wood textures and then didn't extend this treatment to the rocks too, or even the barrel for that matter. Consistency is key (as is following the brief).
  • Appealing design on the building, I like the chunky wood, the trim sheets the upright logs, the composition and colours. I think the grass and foliage need a bit of love, they could certainly be more saturated to match with the building, grass seems to have no variation or shadows. Rocks look too light and uniform in colour. Try giving them a lot more crevises and adding a dark colour in the crevises.
  • Excellent art direction, well done for committing to the angular style on all the objects even the trees and rocks. Nice color scheme although I'd prefer the trees and wood to be a bit more saturated like in the start of the document.
