Thank you all! The only Issues that I want to do better next time are trees and Rivers. For the rest I am very happy with the outcome now.

I like the clear presentation and the relative size of the mountains, excellent work!
Love the map. Very great work.
Critique: The shadows of most of the trees seem to fall to the west while the actual shading on the mountains and trees themselves seem to be on the eastern half. The darkened shaded area should corresponding to the directions of the shadows.
It seems the entire northern forest has physical shadows facing west implying the sun would be in the east. This would essentially 'flip' the shading of the hills, mountains and lowland trees.
I hope my critique is clear and not offensive.
Please link back to me if used
The texture is amazing, nice job!
This is an absolutely stunning map! I want one.
Well, as i said in the WIP thread...this is really beautiful. A very unique style. Very well done, Schwarzkreuz! Have some rep. (if i can)!
And if you care to share ... i'd be interested in brushes from this map...not only the mountains. But i am greedy
Btw, is this a world you have worked out in any detail? You mentioned rpg-ing. If you have things in written form, i'd be very much interested to learn more about this world (yeah, i am enthusiastic rpg-er myself and i looove to discover new worlds...especially ones with such gorgeous maps).
Oh und ich gratuliere zur Beendigung des ersten digitalen Projekts (da all die Namen in der Karte auf Deutsch sind, nehme ich an du verstehst das hier )

Thanks for your reply, and Yes ich versteh deutsch bin in Deutschland aufgewachsen.
There is a 120 000 years history ob this World. 120 playable races and much more. It is also possible to Play in this World in 12 different historicak settings ranging from the past 24k Years. The basic idea is a Giant Continental generation spaceship Crashs in the Middle of somethink like Middle Earth, and than turn it into postapokalypse Environment. If you speak German try Tanelorn.Net I am leading an Creativechallenge for RPG settings there soon.
Thanks, Schwarzkreuz. I will look for this on Tanelorn. What's your nick-name over there? Also Schwarzkreuz?
Btw, is this map all you have mapped out of this world...so is this kind of "the world-map"? Or is there more? If yes, I'd like to see it
And 120 000 years?! Holy crap! Any plans to publish this somewhere on the internet? (or maybe even as a commercial product?)

Excellent map! One of the best on this site yet in my opinion How did you get the country continent lines to be so natural? Did you hand draw the geography lines of the lands masses or did rough them in and vary them with the computer? The mountains are gorgeous, though i think a little bit of variety and breakage in the tress to the north would do something for it as well. Bravo!

I think i would do the trees otherwise Next Time. The coastel line was Build like in tears Tutorial.
Sometimes i was thinking about publishing my material about the World but i don't Know if it is interesting enough to Be of any Comercial success.
