Thanks guys.
@ Generalhead : that's probably true, I gave the map a slightly more light
@Whing : Nothing was really fixed at the beginning. I started to draw the overall shape then put reliefs. Regarding reliefs, I added rivers. Names came at the last, invented while making the map.
@ Whing and Lingon : True, a layer was missing (hidden)As for the grid, this wasn't intended as a latitudes/longitudes grid but rather as a four-figure grid reference.
Ok, the grid makes more sense then. Personally, I'd have gone for normal lat's and long's, but… whatever
I think my only criticism so far is that I don't like the lack of definition between the outer gray border and the map itself. To me, it's too soft.
Thanks for the answers - Max - !
I agree with Diamond. I would see something more strong as a transition between the map and its border.
I agree, I'm not fully satisfied about that soft transition, I'll fix it.
Wow, this map is really dark looking...
I like ithowever it seems to look at little grainy in the bottom right corner. Maybe it's just that color.

It definitely looks better lightened up, great job.
I love the way you labeled all of the territories.
Thanks much! Attached is an update (actually not that much but well...) with sharpened grey outer border and the two base sidemaps added
@fm : yep that's the combination of texturing/color work in this area; For some reasons i like the feel it has
@Dain : hehe thanks much...Though I wonder why I wasted my tima way from it for long years
MUCH better with that sharp border.
What are the side maps going to represent?
Thanks Diamond, the first one will be a political map showing the main nations and their sub-divisions states, Nations capitols states and cities and main roads aswell. The second one will show the aftermath of the chemical disaster with the different levels of contamination in C.S.
