    This style definitely looks better. I'd make the mountains pop a little more. Maybe some defined edges?

    If you want to go for realism, it's worth noting that a lot of mountains run in chains and ridges.
    Ridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Mountain range - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Now don't get me wrong. Floating continents are definitely not earth-like terrain, so if you want to have lots of solo mountains not in chains, that's perfectly cool. Just an idea.

    Edit: Looking more closely at your map, it looks like you have made some of the mountains in chains. I definitely couldn't tell that from the zoomed out view. Maybe define those ridges a bit more. Connect 'em to be longer, too, maybe.
