damn, how long did this take to you to do that?
 
Definitely looks weird :eek: especially round mountains and grass, water is good but lacks detail and sand is masterpiece but it looks definitely boring :/
I believe the water is the grass tile with a blue color over it. I liked it, seems a less hard work solution than move the texture, only had to move the borders and make waves. :D

___________________________________
I believe that the mountain isn't so harmonic with the environment because of his light color.

Also, applying excessive AA layers which causes pillow shading, do it look blurred (particularly at the top of mountain)

About the mountain side sprites:
When you don't define the surfaces of the stones you let the player eyes confused in a matter of volume, "It's plan or have height?"

One of the reasons is the reflex that you put in the corners of your sprites (I'm talking about the bottom corners of the stone).
It is a common thing to see in your style and it's good for items, cristals, pillars and other things. But not all kind of sprites can follow the same pattern.
Metal has a lot of contrast and brightness, cloth has less contrast and folds.
I mean: different things, different rules.

Setting the surfaces of the stones:

Once this is done you can set the texture, I suggest something like @Galiant stones (In texture not colors hehe):

Also, this example from internet:

It is also interesting to fix some errors like this in the connections, I know it's hard and annoying because I have done some times and actually hate. :(

Thanks Leshrot, your comment is really helpful, I'm still learning to do environment and at the moment I'm working to fix my similar-to-metal shading xD
 
You got some great skills, bro! I'm certainly a big fan of yours!
Tho I agree with Leshrot about those stones you made.
Check these rocks made by me, it might help you too.
