    Wip Regional map somewhere in 1200 CE Japan

    The first version is available on my introduction post:
    http://www.cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?t=4247

    I haven't marked any towns or special places on the map as I'm not
    sure yet which style would suit this map best. I think the mountains and
    other elevations still need a lot of work as they seem to be lacking something.

    The forests could have been done differently also, and on a closer look the
    ground texture is a bit too bumby.

    I would appreciate tips on how to make the mountais more spectacular, as
    they get lost too easily to the map (not elevated enough..). I'm currently doing
    all the work with photoshop, and having tried other software (dedicated for
    creating mountains etc) I came to conclusion that photoshop works better
    for me. Also comments on the town etc markers are welcomed.

    ps. I know the roads aren't finished

    Here's the map:
