Submitted for your approval, two areas, one a slice of cityscape, the other perhaps the entrance to a dungeon. A possible backstory is included for each, if you like.
Area 001: Cannoneer's Square is a small specialty marketplace located behind the venerable Iluster College of the Arcane. The district is dotted with warehouses and workshops. A small alleyway lead off to one side of the College's alchemical labs, and onto the well-manicured college grounds. The market plays home to a number of travelling peddlers during the spring, and at present, is the site of a gathering expedition into the mountains, to be led by a small mercenary company camped in the middle of the square. To one side of the largest of the red tents is a grimy alleyway by which is reached a set of stairs, that lead up the mouldering ramparts to a quiet overlook, often frequented by city guards. Down the opposite stairs one comes to a locked grate through which lies access to the city's ancient, overgrown aqueducts.
Area 003: The Watchwall is a relic of the old empire, long since abandoned. The elder races had powers now lost to history, and it was these ancient mages who built the great watchtowers, the Southian Tors, which scraped at the dome of heaven and housed whole armies in their day, their strength barring invaders at every mountain pass across the entire Imperial range.

Area001 - Score: 8.25
Nice area. Good placement of buildings. Seemed a little cramped for space in the town part. Good attempt with the color tool in the grassy area. The grassy area could have used a few more placeables to liven it up.
Area002 - Score: 8.25
Good use of height. The texture job wasn't too bad either. I like the way you used color to give space to the mountains. The walkmesh could use some cleaning up & the water was a little too blue for my taste; it seemed unnatural (don't know if that was intended).
