    That's very lovely indeed. There are some odd bobbly textures in the sea in some places - do those designate the underwater terrain?

    But that's a tiny comment. It's a beautiful map. Great work.

    Yes, the bobbly stuff is underwater terrain. Maybe it's too subtle... I cranked it up a bit in the latest version:

    Absolutely stunning work. I'd love to see a bigger version though.

    Very nice indeed!
    Are you planning to add places of interest as well, like cities?
    Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.

    Yes, I'll label the most important/largest cities.

    I finished labeling the map. I called the world Saderan. Here is the [edit: almost] final version:

    Brilliant as always Tear, I would have repped but i need to spread around a bit more before i can.

    I especially like the oceans, they're full their little awesome features that give it depth and life without stealing away from the rest of the map.

    -D-
    People come and people go. I walk amongst them, I see their faces; but none see mine. I pass them in the streets but nary a glance is spared my way, for what interest would they have in a Wanderer? Not of this world... Forever Alone... Forever Wandering... LoneWandererD...

    Can you create a tutorial of a style guide on what you did to create this... I liked what you have done, but not having had the time to experiment, was hoping you might take the time to record kindof what you did and how you went about it?
