[WIP] B&W map

[Lingon]

Great start!

If your computer can handle it I'd work in a higher resolution, that will let you make a more detailed map and give a smoother look.

The mountains are really nice, especially the bigger ones. I think they would look even better with more variety, though. You don't have to draw every one individually, just a couple more and mix them for a more natural look.

Finally, here's a great tutorial about rivers:

I hope I'm not coming across as overly critical here, it's a map with lots of potential and I'm looking forward to the next WIP!

Thanks for the criticism, the tutorial about rivers were much appreciated, have read upon geology a bit now to get a basic understanding of how earth works. Have used tectonic plates lines to get the mountain ridges in place. Next up is finding a good river flow.

Here is a elevation map of my region:
