I have only a few complaints - I'd add alot more lakes, especially in the mountain areas! Also, in some areas, the rivers seems to run a bit strange - especially in some rocky regions.

Hmm? I don't really seem to see a problem with the rivers here. Now the Western Kanwata map has something confusing where the Mogopo and Simpopo rivers seem to be connected at the Nan-du-Sugami, just ESE of 76ºE 26ºS. I presume this is just a problem of scale, and the two rivers are separated by a narrow neck of steep ridge.

By the way Rob, how do you work out the location of streams? Do you use some sort of software modeling, or do you just try to approximate by hand and eye?

Yup. Nan-du-Sugami is a volcano, and both of those rivers begin on its flanks.

It's all done by feel; I have a general idea where the major rivers will go, and the minor rivers are drawn in starting at areas with high relief and flowing to areas with low relief.
