I didn't like the normal maps for some reason.  It just feels out of place.

Just lower the brightness in the area with the battle. Or make the bricks dirtier and you'll be perfect i think, Although even if you left it alone i'd still enjoy it :D

a quick hack for the background. Looks kinda wierd still, and the seam is caused by the game, not by me. The texture wraps seamlessly in photoshop. It also needs to be bigger, but it's really hard to find source images that are 2048x2048

The background is obviously farmland; I can see it working for the chocobo farm area, but not for Junon.

Good luck getting rid of the seam. I had the same problem with one of the bahamut summons.

true, it was just the first image in yahoo image search :D it was more to see how difficult it would be to make it work, and it wasn't that hard at all. Though using it for the chocobo farm area would be a good idea.

Oh wow, Let me pick my jaw up off the floor here that looks fantastic. Are these just the original scene just retextured? Or remodeled as well?

Just a retexture. The original scenes arent that bad from a model standpoint. And textures can work wonders anyways.

got a little work done this morning, need to blend the background with the actual ground a little more. It's getting there, though it still has quite a way to go. I'm doing the dirt battle field next, then the snow, and probably the beach.

@lee, the grass is still noisy, and for the background, make it more irregular (hills mountains).

The background just needs a touch of green to match the forground.

This. At the moment, it looks very barren and desolate. There are also mountains on all continents, so there should be a few mountains or hills for both aesthetic and continuity reasons.

Agree. First do this, then the hills :P

Pyrozen, I think the desolate background looks really good.  I have no gripes besides matching it to the foreground a little better.

Millenia, just awesome dude.

Again, it looks to me that the ground might have a bit too much lightning/not worn enough.

It looks like:
