    I just finished the main part of my new map Faeris, but I want some thoughts before I continue. As you can probably tell, this is a political map, so really just major water bodies are shown, as well as major cities and towns.

    I am debating on wether or not to add borders. If I do, it will add clarity, but if I don't, then things look much prettier. I kind compromised with the 'soft' borders with the calligraphic maroon/orange brush, but they are left vague due to the fact that rarely do you see a giant wall dividing chucks of wilderness.

    I would like to know as well if the font and color is legible, and make sure that everything is clear.

    Extra note: The compass is not mine. I found it in an image search.

    Might benefit from an apostropocalypse.

    Thank you for the site!

    The apostrophes were somewhat intentional, as most of those places in their native languages are two native words (The meanings are the subtitles), but I do understand the general point.

    If the names are two words in the native language, why don't you write them as two words? Or combine them into a single compound word? I imagine that's what those native languages would do.
