Alrighty - I think it is dang near done. I would GREATLY appreciate any nitpicking and what-not any of you have to offer. Once I have received plenty of feedback I will post it to the finished maps section.
Seriously, if you have time, give it a looksy and see if you spot any glaring inconsistencies or what have you.
Thanks as always, I really appreciate all the feedback I have received on here so far. I am already looking forward to my next map!
Fantastic Work, Katerek! I don't really have any nit-picks to speak of, and look forward to seeing this work in the finished maps forum. I do have a question, though, and I apologize if it has already been answered elsewhere in this thread. Some of your numerals are bold, some are light. You have walls in both styles as well. I was wondering what they mean.

No there is no real reason for the difference between bold and normal text. In fact, it is something I will most-likely change before posting it in the finished maps section. Actually, I had meant to do that already, but I forgot. Thanks for the reminder though!

Unless I explicitly state otherwise you have my permission to use my maps in any capacity needed just give me credit. If you make money off them somehow, that's awesome - let me know! In fact, I LOVE to hear about the ways maps I make are used.
Wow! Not only is the final piece marvelous, the journey from beginning to end is simply astonishing! A true masterpiece!
Congratulations on a job very well done.
Awesome work and I have no more comments.
Now, this is what I call a city
Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.

let me know what you think in the comments there! I tweaked a few final things, added a couple handfuls of buildings and a few roads.

A great map, I could see a whole living campaign from it.
Congrats on the finished map.
Finally a City Map that looks like a crowded place, not a collection of individual buildings!
Good Job!

Just stumbled across this. Very awesome. Quick question for ya, how did you pull off that water effect? I have been looking for an effect of that type for some time for my realistic maps.

Sorry for the slow response - I had to have my gall bladder yanked and have been incommunicado of late.
The water effect? Its pretty simple. I did a few random splotches of blue in photoshop and then applied a ripple effect followed by a frosted glass effect followed by another ripple effect. Each time I did ripples, I changed the settings a little.
Its basically pure experimentation.
