Wow, absolutely awesome, Torq. I love the style.
This is a section from a world-map? If so, can we see the whole world-map? I always like to know how to position detailmaps in the whole picture

Sorry Eilathen, but this is as scaled out as it gets. I suppose it cant be the whole world because it doesn't link up with itself, but I haven't done anything with a wider lens. Thanks for the compliments though.

It has a very relaxing palette. Also, the mountain scale works well with the area you cover - not over extended, at all.

I like the colors that you have used also. I do have to agree that the mountains, and even some of the hills have a bit of a plateauing look to them. However, I do love the textures, it gives a feeling to the contours of the land.
Great job so far!
Here is a more detailed look at the Nort-Western section of the world map. The same technique and the same height map have been used to show more topographical detail, hopefully this has been done better this time and will get rid of the plateau effect some of you picked up.

Oh my word! Looks utterly beautiful. I really like the way you've got those subtle folds of land on the plains. The mountains look a lot better too!
Even though this is a 'realistic' map, there is something really painterly about it - I love the way you have captured that feel.
Fantastic!
The only concern I have is that there are no rivers, without them you have multiple salt lakes. Of course, if the water on your world is drying up (Barsoom!) then the lack of rivers is less a problem BUT there would still be old river beds (unless the water loss was very rapid).
Stunning map though, I look forward to watching its development.
