The Island of Wanakokakola....Comments, please.

Salutations....

My first completed island map...I even worked up a decent-looking volcano. Please peruse and critique, constructive criticism is always welcome.

Notes:
1) Intentionally left out the trees. See the attached "historical" text.
2) The difference between the 2 jpg's - one has both bumps and texture turned off so the lava field shows up better.
3) Don't kvetch about my "rivers"; again, read the "history".
4) A lot of the detail is hand-painted; if you can't tell, then I did good. Ask what is or isn't.
5) The blocky chunks scattered around are just that, and don't pretend to be anything else. Erosion happens (again, the .txt file).
6) The light gray lines all over the lava flow aren't rivers, they're erosion lines.
7) It ain't perfect and I know it. But I was happy enough with it to show it off. Gotta crawl before you can walk.
VIII) Read the history text anyway. It's good for a few giggles.

Credit where credit is due: I relied heavily on original tutorials concocted and/or compiled by RobA, Arsheesh and wisemoon. These tutorials inspired all my tweaks, mosh-ups, flashes of insight and experimentation.
