The specular(?) lighting looks far too shiny in my opinion (not only on this model, but here it's very noticeable), and the turret would be better on the cabin (or that needs some burn marks).
We want information... information... information.

I guess it could be a good idea to turn the overall specularity down a bit in the shader, I left it quite high earlier because it allowed me to see whether my normal maps are correctly mapped.
Also, I made new trees that aren't just textured planes. No normalmaps though...
Edit: I also noticed that the terrain is lit from the wrong direction, can anyone fix this?

Added snowy trees as well, all trees and textures can now be downloaded from our svn repository.

why did you decide to not make a nm textures for trees?

P.S. oh, and you could desaturate snow on trees to almost white/gray... you know this is wz's gamma..

@Mangust: the thing is, I'm using the same texture for every layer of the spruce. Making a normal map (object space) would require about six times the texture space. Also, I'm not using a hipoly to bake from this time (hipoly => lowpoly works best for solid objects). A tangent space map would of course be ideal for this kind of situation.
I'm currently work on a laptop whose screen has very crappy color depth, I'll look at saturation etc. more once I get to my own computer in a week or so ;)

also snowy trees have hard black edges on texture, they should be half-transparent at least :-)

Ah yes, the alpha border causing trouble as always.. You make some color changes to the image but they never get applied to the alpha 0 parts, oh well, I guess I need to get used to a proper workflow with those...

Also, a new model: the basic arizona hut :)
Still only baked textures, will add some rust and stuff

Oh, and if anyone is interested, here's the hipoly (pure geometry, no textures)

Just a quick observation that I don't think has been pointed out yet: when I was comparing the new mg tower to the old model, I realized that there appears to be a glitch. It seems that any side of the new model that is facing away from the camera appears invisible, which can be clearly seen through the holes in the frame. :?

That would be because of back face culling.
