Thanks for the feedback. I will have to figure out how to turn on the pressure setting for my wacom tablet. I took a pic of my layers just to see if I am on the right track when it comes to how I have it set up. From what I read I have to draw more detail in the mountains and forests and not rely completely on color layers and or effects to flush them out? I also used a displacement map for the paper to make the elements look like they were drawn on the map instead of floating above it. Unfortunately it didn't do much for the mountains.
