Thread: [WIP] Map of the Exile (vectorial)

I've been overwhelmed by your replies to my previous post, and I thought I should try again ;-)

I've been working a bit more on this. I found bartmoss' map of a much neglected continent and liked the colors of the final result. I thought that I could work something alike into the map, and though I didn't achieve anything as pretty as bartmoss', there was a big improvement. Here's the result:



Now, as usual, my problem has a name: mountains. I don't know how to color them to make them stand out properly. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Honestly, I think those mountains look just excellent as-is, with that slight brown color. If you add any more to 'em, they're going to overwhelm everything else.

Oh btw, awesome map. Repped.

I was waiting until more came along but...if you're going to add a lot of detail those big labels are going to get in the way. You might want to make them smaller but space them out with kerning so that they cover the same area.

Great idea, I was somewhat worried about that too. Thanks!
