    It looks very good gammetelier, have some reputation!
    Highlights for me are:

    - The realistic looking mountains and terrain
    - The colors
    - The font

    Some criticism:

    - Your rivers seem to very large/wide. On this scale not all rivers should be shown or be this large/wide.
    - The rivers don't act naturally. Rivers normally don't split as water takes the way of least resistance. The same goes for outlets of lakes: multiple outlets are rare.

    As this is your map and your world, feel free to do what you want with your rivers. I am just saying that in the real world these rivers would be unnatural.

    So, are you going to add places of interest, like cities?

    Only two things I have to add is: I can see that you're going for deltas so put those closer together and make the branches smaller/closer to the coast; and second while not technically wrong it does stretch logic for the river to cross the desert to skirt the mountains run through a gap and continue on...instead it should probably connect to that little wisp of a river near the coast. Otherwise, great colors and nice layout.
    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.
