better than the last version, though personally i still prefer the first version. seems more 'natural'

Someone may have said this or this is just my mind going weird but I like it how the shape of the dragon almost seems to match the shape of the coastline

thats actually very cool, hadn't noticed that , though now you mention it i cant not notice it!

intentional?

[Chashio]

Yeah, I like doing that kinda thing. =)

[Lukc]

I like where you're going with this, particularly the (to me) unreadable vertical script

[Chashio]

Thanks Lukc! I'm thinking of putting more on, like the bit in the top corner of the ocean but in various places... sorta like little notes or descriptions of the areas or some such. Dunno, maybe too much? Anyhoo, I cleaned up a lot of little details everywhere, bit more on the dragon, added more labels (may move some of them later). I wonder if I should make some distinction between the label dots; before flood = filled circle, after flood = open circle? Might try it. Adjusted the contrast/levels again, too... darker. XD

Looking great Chashio! Really coming together as a whole piece.

[Chashio]

Thanks Bogie! =) I'm quite happy with how it's turning out.

[Chashio]

Changed some label dots and added a key. Don't know as I'll have much time to do anything else. Any suggestions for making it better (not necessarily for now... but whenever) or more usable for special interest, like game-playing and such, would be very much appreciated. I'm kinda curious what use people put this type of map to. And thanks to everyone who made comments! =)
