    looks really good, you missed a drop shadow on wyldwood ... now throw in the capitols, a border and a compass and you're done

    Yes, very pretty map, rep-worthy indeed.

    Hey! You know what might make this map look kinda epic?! If you gave the lables a bit of the "star wars" prologue perspective, to match the land. Whddaya reckon?

    Finally had the time and inspiration to name all the regions of the map! I have added a border and a compass rose and think I am close to finished.

    I'm wondering if I label the major cities or if that would clutter up this continental map too much - thoughts anyone?

    With that much text already present it feels weird not to have any towns labeled. The overcrowding can be fixed by making the present text smaller but spaced out more.

    This map looks really good! I agree with ascension on the labeling. I also think the map would benefit from a different texture for the forests. great work!

    I have nothing to add beyond what Ascension and Sylok have already suggested. Just wanted to complement you on a very nice looking map so far Torius.

    Cheers,

    I finally got back to this project and have made some updates to the labeling, I am very close now to be being finished.
