    Yeah, I think it is. It looks great.
    My only comment is about the houses and that still stands. Maybe it's just me however.

    The only thing I would change or tweak is that the houses all seem to have the same roof color. Yes, there are some other colors, I can see them, but I think there needs to be more variation. Not that each house has a different color but more of a district thing...one district generally has "x" type of roof and another district has "y" type of roof, etc. Special buildings have various roof styles/colors and the nobles district and merchant district can be all haphazard as to show off their unique distinctness to the world. I know that that can be a lot of work (god how I know) so if you opted to leave it is as then I would certainly understand. I think it's a great map, especially the lil houses here n there and of course the trees

    Thanks again for your tips. It really helps me to get other perspective.

    I added a nice border, some small boat docks, different roofs.

    I declare my map finished.

    That is looking very nice! I would rep you but I need to spread it around a bit more before I can do so again. Adds woekan to my 'must rep again when I can' list.

    Edited to Add: Thanks for the forest texture! Very cool!
    Cheers,
