Multi-Story-Water concept art work

this is concept work of my work on what type of icons that i might be using on a map, each of them represents and points a particular building or area on the map. when i was working on them i wanted to give a cartoonie type texture to make it look it more attractive to catch people eyes.

The top left one is a salt shaker with a human face this icon is the icon that represents all the major Sir titus salt building, that icon is humours joke to Sir titus salt name because he's the word salt in his name and i used a salt shaker as a joke and i thought that would be good as an icon.
The one underneath that one a train that looks like its about to speed off, this is the icon that gonna to represent all the train station in the area, when i was thinking of  a  train station icon i noticed that all of the weren't all that intresting so i thought putting a super dooper high speed train and i figured that would be cool.
The one underneath that one is the church icon, know at the time i wanted to use the tree of life symbol for the church icon but people may have missed understood it so i went with a 3D cross with a beaming jesus light behind it.
The top middle one is the icon for all the other major and historical building, i couldn't be bothered with doing individual so what i did to solve all problems with one is to have a icon with a bunch of buildings put together and made to look like they were jumping out of the page like some cartoon city.
The one underneath that is a icon for a music shop, when i was working on this i didn't want to put down a music symbol or some sort of musical instrument it was just to annoyingly common for so i went for a boom box jumping around with musical symbols coming out of it, all with each individual funky colours.
The one underneath that one is the icon that represents Roberts park, when working on this one i kinda struggle with this one because i didn't know what kind a icon i could of used to represent a park then i started to think about what people did in park which was playing around, so i made an icon with the stuff that people play with and i thought i would try to make it look like the bases of pirates symbol.
The bottom middle was the icon that represents major forest or a forest with a names and the area. it was hard to come up with something creative that could symbolizes a forest which inevatable lead me a tree, its hard not to use a tree there aren't that many things accosiated with trees.
The top right icon is an icon for a swing bridge for this i decide to immate the swing bridge symbol that you see on the side of the road on a road sign, to be oniste i didn't know what to put for a swing bridge so i decided to go with tho one you on a road sign.
The last icon is just a small drawing of a band for the icon to represent the band stand in roberts park.

What i could of done differently was i should of done my variation of icons for each of the icons that i've done, i should'n't of just relied on just the one drawing i did, it si very un-prof...

what i learnt is that is a kinda painful process to in a matter of speaking, i just find it tier-some.
