I think they look pretty nice :D You use doodads, different tiles and the raise / lower tool in a pretty effective way. GJ!

Things you can improve:
I think there is a ramp error (indicated by the little black triangle in the middle of shots 1 & 2).
Furthermore I would suggest to take your screenies in the World Editor, you can better control the angle and distance using this method. Experiment a little with the Ctrl-key to discover what you can do this way. (Some time ago here in the forum was a pretty good tutorial how to do beautiful screenies in the editor but I don't know where it was)

Wow that last one is even better than the others!

You can change the sky (and the daytime too) in File -> Preferences -> Visual and then switching the sky on in the "View"-dropdown menu.
However, that change will only take place in WE for screenshots etc. and cannot be seen if you play the map AFAIK; if you want a certain sky that the player of your map can see you will have to to do it by triggers.

the thing is I was looking for people to help me design the terrain, but nobody wanted to do it, so Im gonna do it myself as much as I hate it :)

ok the last one

oh and by the way is there any way to make a view in WE so that the whole terrain would be seen and not just to a point where it gets eaten by the sky?

Hold control and scroll with the mouse wheel to change the Far Z amount.
