I'm enjoying watching this progress.
Those are some damn fine looking mountains. Just goes to show that a good hand-drawn mountain beats a brush every time.

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go..
My first thought was "needs shading" but really, with the style that's developing that might be more distracting.
Nice so far! Especially for mspaint

An update
I also put these updates on my deviantart (although I only "update" the images there instead of posting every new update as a seperate image)
I took the frame from a map I'm creating for a book I'm writing (which will take a while) and I added some more names and national borders.

really great work you have there... and I can't help thinking - If you can do this in MS Paint - what couldn't you do in Photoshop or GIMP where you can adjust details a lot more, like putting a nice taper on the rivers
Have some rep

All the best with learning GIMP et al. But please don't go adding textures and shadows to this map. If anything, just a subtle softening. This map has a wonder and charm which is so engaging. I love it.

Wonderful work, especially for Paint!
I agree with Aval, some subtle adjustments in PS would be fine, but nothing major.
