    Yes. Labeling all the locations would be impossible otherwise.

    @Tear - That looks fantastic so far. Once you're done I suggest you send that to George Martin himself. He seems to really enjoy getting stuff like this and usually has it published on his website.

    I can try.

    But there's still some more work to do first. I spent quite some time putting all the castles in place.

    Great stuff Tear... I stand in awe.
    I like the labeling a lot... the labels in the snow almost look like footprints

    This map definitely deserves a thread of its own!

    Yes I agree, move it to it's own thread.

    I used a mold looking texture in mine, and colour tinted it to have a slightly bluish hue. I placed it like the tree layers, but took the bevel off. maybe give that a whirl? If you don't have a good mold, any flattish grassland should work if you tint it properly.

    I would try to find a suitable texture or mixture from several textures. You can always change the color tone easily in Photoshop, so you don't have to worry about exact color. Attached is one texture you could try and modify to suit your world. I hope this helps.
