It seems quite similar to BruMars' terrain, and I think I like his better, but yours is pretty awesome as well. What it needs is some trees on the foreground, to make the area where the landed ship is more of a 'clearing' rather than 'a huge bit of open space'. Also, did you fiddle with the water settings to make it more reflective?
Thanks for your comments and compliment, to be fair I also noticed a similarity to BruMars' and I do think his is better, which is why I thought it necessary to point out that I didn't just steal his idea. I'll see what I can do to improve the map! And yes, I turned the graphics up as far as they would go to see what it would do to the water, and I liked it, even if it might have melted my graphics card in the process.
Edit: I didn't actually change any water settings in the editor, which I think is what you were actually asking
Also I think everyone here has done some great terraining, keep up the good work :)
As a long time lurker on this site, I have finally been drawn into making an account by this, so hello everyone! And props to you for getting me to sign up ^^
So here's my contribution, took me an hour or so, maybe two. It's a colony of people that have been forced to flee their planet and have found a new world to land on. (When I started this was an original idea, and now there are two of us :P)
Also BruMars, if you are using XP, screenshots are stored in My Documents\StarCraft II\Screenshots, but I don't know about any other OS. Also I don't know what blue boxes you mean under trees/doodads.
