    Nice work on your first map. The paper background looks rather fine, the colouration gives a good impression of water without being to obvious. Good landform, nice layout for the mountains.

    But there are a few things that you should change, in my opinion.

    Main point is the rivers. First their layout is... quite wrong. The one tutorial you should definitly read in that regard is this one.
    Simply put: rivers start in the highlands and merge with other rivers on their way towards the oceans. Splits are rare and limited to specific situations.
    Second, the style you used doesn't fit the rest of your map. At least you should join the outline of the rivers to the coast... but I'd say you should go for simple black lines completely. You should also taper them... make the go more narrow towards their origin. Also, don't draw your rivers over other graphical elements.

    A minor point: the ships. Nice brushes, but you should not repeat them. It looks... copied (because it IS copied )
