    I'm very much in love with your mountains - as most of us seem to be! However, I feel I really must make a small remark about that lake that doesn't overflow into the ocean. There actually are lakes that do that (Salt Lake e.g.), but it's a pretty uncommon trait, especially when there's no significant obstacles like massive mountain ranges to be seen.

    Here is a small update before the move ^^

    Much about finding a nice style. Grayscale so far, but color eventually ...
    Changed the forests/ trees btw

    Many things need to be adjusted still, of course. Contrast, linework sometimes a bit dodgy, consistency, etc.

    Didn't they say that having good values first is the best way to get a great illustration?
    But I will ^^

    Incredible work, Dain. You could leave it as a grayscale and it would be fantastic; color will be a wowser.

    Thanks,
    You know that it's all because of you and your inspirational artworks, don't you? Well, you should

    Hi,
    Sometimes, you start a project thinking it's gonna be quick and smooth. This is without taking into account that life is full of surprises and duties that you can't postpone.
    Some time later, you finally find the moment getting back to that project and make some progress.
    Today is that moment

    They are still things to be done on this map, but it feels so good coming here again and just share.
    Any comment welcome, as usual

    That looks great Dain.
    I agree with the others, I would love to see that in color as well.
    Only thing I would ask is why 3 fonts?
