Welcome!
The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.
Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

but you may want to keep it clean as it's looking great (or maybe post a grungy parchment version for us to compare). Some minor remarks: I think the ruins/town symbols are a bit out of place (maybe make them smaller or use house/tower icons or something?). Also the landmass is a little flat colorwise, maybe ease a little on the light color wash, or use a little more different colors to give it a little more variance (but also some grunge may do that job). anyway... still a great map... just my thoughts. cheers!
