    Awesome map. The only really suggestion I can give is you have some river branches that don't seem to have a source. The main rivers that follow out from the forest down to the coast are fine, most likely sourced by the melting snow from the mountains, that's fine. But I noticed you have a few small branches that begin outside the forest and quickly join one of these main rivers, but no clearly defined source for them. At this scale, I imagine we'd be able to see even small lakes that would possibly source them.

    Amazing work, though

    Once again, a really beautiful map. I especially like your ocean. The mountains... I'm having a little trouble with. They seem too 'fluffy' to be mountains, and the shadows on them seem to be pretty hard to the ease, whereas the shadows on the forested parts are more to the southeast.

    Very pretty map, consider yourself repped.

    Still, as I said before, the mountains look too cloudy to me. It's my only regret

    Very nice map. You make me extremely jealous. What are the odds of getting an upload of those various brushes you created? I use photoshop as well, but being self taught, I still haven't quite gotten the hang of making my own brushes.

    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.

    Thanks for reminding me...I was gonna do that but my PS had a crash and I lost them. Once I get this file back open then I'll copy these and turn them into brushes and post em up in the Elements section...probably sometime tonight.

    Amazing. I especially love all the cities. Each one is almost a miniature city map unto itself.
