Oh blast. A miss-communication on my part. :/ I was just referring to the cartouche bit (the empty space and texture in the cartouche overpowering...

Alright, here we go with larger shields (only on the map, I'll update the cartouche if this version is better) Your thoughts?

First off, excellent map! It's quite interesting and pleasing to look at - the colors you chose for your land masses and bodies of water are...

Yes, it is possible, but without an outflow, the lake will be salt water.

I'll show an update with bigger ones on the map. If that looks better I'll change that.

Those are great informational links, WillP! I've found Wikipedia useful as well, but I'll have to check these sites out.

Ha! My wife is my toughest critic. The new version looks good to me. If you need more ideas, you might look at Erwin Raisz symbology. Erwin Raisz...

Thanks :) So next step is to fill the right cartouche with a timeline of the events of the first age that will modify political structures of the...

Very nice colours on those shields.

Updated with first map's heraldry.

Cool stuff, thanks for sharing, persondude! And thanks for allowing Chashio to post the full-res version :) Hope to seeing it soon. Oh and keep...
