For the first screen shot:
Way too green IMO. The blizz cliffs seem out of place so maybe toy around with the raise and lower tools. Also, the fog looks...odd. It just ends abruptly. Thats just the sky's fault though. Change the sky to a fogged sky and there should be no fog issues. The terrain is a little flat in the middle. Add some lumps to the ground to make it look more natural. The trees you are using are horrible at that angle. Try downloading a custom tree or omit them all together. The rain and infernal landings are nice though.

Second Screenshot:

What is it supposed to be? If its underwater, it does not look like it. Make some holes in the roof to allow light in, make it seem more ruined. The chains hanging from the ceiling don't seem to fit right now. What are they doing there? How could anyone reach them? The wooden beams are ugly, remove them or make them blend better. Again, if it is underwater, add some schools of fish, make it seem inhabited my the denzins of the ocean. Give it some detail too. Add vines on the walls or seaweed coming out of the ground. Ah, the ground, make it unflat. It needs to be hilly to look natural. If you do not know how to make the hilly ground, noise and smooth it. Most people dislike this, but it is great while you are getting the hang or the more advanced methods.

I'll leave room for others, for I have no idea what I've written about already

Not bad for your first terrains, and welcome to the terrain forum.
