A style experiment

I agree with Murcu in most parts.. Except I only think the Oceans look particularly good when zoomed out. In close I think they clash with the other parts of the map. And, I can't say I like the mountain.. It just doesn't pop out.. I had to look to spot it a little also.

Thanks for the feedback, guys.

So I take it as a 'no' then - the two styles don't work all that great with one another. Okay then, that's alright. The world keeps turning.

I more or less dropped the outlines of the landmass and forests and aimed towards some more realistic textures. Still not really happy with the forests yet but I think they'll do for now. I also toned down the colors a bit (probably too much) and added a test mountain. Will have to make it pop out more though and I think I'd be able to do that with some relief shading. Hmm, yeah, gonna try that later. Might also work with the forests. *crossfingers* But for now I'll grab me some sleep, so here's the current WIP as is:
