heyo, i think what you need to work on is making the trees look like they have mass in space and not just cardboard cut outs

also i suggest some more texture, not to the extent on the quick test i did, but just a little more

in my sketch i tried to make the branches more rounded and much more tapered than yours. I think you're aren't tapering enough

i like the branches on 2 better because they start fat and go skinny unlike 3 where the left side one is so fat i don't know how easily the tree could hold it.

not the best example but ah well
