    Thanks.

    I haven't thought much about the fonts yet. I wanted to quickly differentiate towns/ places/ regions. 3 different fonts was the quickest way I guess.
    'm gonna try using only one font, but with different effects.

    What do you think?

    Welcome back man The map is great! I'm less convinced by the labels : the white bold font looks too modern, no?

    Hey Dain, one thing you can do with a single font is to use all caps for regions, larger text for places and smaller text for towns.
    I've found that works nicely with a single font. Sometimes a color change, if it looks okay on the map, can work to differentiate.

    Great to see you back in the saddle, Dain! I agree with the fellas, these font choices are kind of meh, but J.Ed had a good suggestion about using different effects within the same font.

    Hi guys,
    Thanks for the feedback

    I did some progress. I still have to tweak things here and there (like the forests, jungles, reliefs, the rosace) but this shows the way I'm heading to.
    Let me know what you think.
