I tried to make them as similar to official JJ2 tiles as possible.

By the way, it's tedious to shade every single tile pixel per pixel. Isn't there a free program that does the shading for you?
You have this gradient image:

You create a face from 3 or 4 lines / bezier curves, like this:

You apply the image to the face. The final result will be this:

This would turn hours of pixel per pixel shading into just a few minutes of planning and applying.
Hmm...try Graphx2? It's the program most similar to deluxe paint out there, and it's free. Mind you, I haven't used it much (and lack experience) because I couldn't get used to the interface, so I may be wrong.
