Review
This huge map contains an incredible amount of detail depicting a convincing landmass layered in history. There are some lovely touches like the way the neatline distorts to fit the graticule so that the divisions remain constant. Desaturated earthy colours and distressing give the map an old, hand drawn look.

I literally signed up to GC just to see this in full resolution. Beautiful work, ravells!

Gorgeous Map.
Only one criticism: Your longitude graticules are mislabeled. The graticule at 5° on the top, when followed down to the bottom, ends at the 10° label; Likewise 10° -> 15°, etc.
Congrats vorropohaiah! A fantastic map, nothing less!

very humbling for this map to have been picked for the cartographers choice thanks to whoever suggested it, though i might be updating the original thread from time to time as i add to the map
