    I reckon you should add a little more green to the grass / rough areas, maybe a little yellow in that too. You have some strong green for the edging which stands out a little at present. Otherwise it gets my thumbs up !

    I thought the O was french but thats west (ahem...) so why is the O in east ? German perhaps ?

    Hi there I dont find a good color combo right now but im working...

    regarding the "O", its because im german. O means Ost (East in english) and I got my compass rose from Wikipedia (german version). Next one will probably be english ;D


    For anyone interested...

    I didn't actually notice that! Most likely because I would've done it also.
    Btw, looks very good.

    It is an interesting style. I like the "grittyness" of the actual map, but am undecided on the rather neon highlights and text.

    Maybe I just need to know who the map is intended for...the context, if you will.
