Hi, Yanonako! As usual, thanks for the wonderful references!
They'll do a lot of good later when my wrist is not tired and I'll polish the A background ^.^)/
I'll also try to bring more light green into the forest, (maybe it goes lighter the closer the trees are to the village?) but no promises on a detailed result (I'm afraid I'm not skilled enough to make out individual trees like your ref does :'D)
I'll post the result later, thanks again!
