    A bit more refining...touched up the shelf cuz the colors were creating a dark ring that I didn't like so I rounded off the top of the contour of the bevel, completely redid the ridge lines, added some more brooding colors to the dead lands, added a forest and a swamp, and some minor tweaks on the rivers. The second image is the base (pre-layer styles) of the ridge lines. For the ridge lines or folded hills (or whatever) I just added a contoured outer bevel and set the fill to zero. My philosophy for drawing them was as "rivers that flow from the mountains" hence, they look like rivers until styled. I also smudged the ends and blurred some of the ones that I wanted to be more rounded. I think I'm ready to start on the other stuff like cites, roads, icons, borders, etc.

    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
    -J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)
