    I think that the red/oranges are a bit dark and also very dominating. I'd tone them down with a bunch of light tan and light yellow. If you go an artistic way it would look like something by TheRedEpic and that would be cool but if you're going sat-style I'd break up the colors with masks and lots of other colors...all very neutral and light.
    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.
    -J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

    I was kind of going for deeper, darker colors...

    If you have a vision to make the map with dark and saturated colors, I think you should go for it and see if it rocks. You can always tune the tones and intensities with adjustment layers set as clipping masks (assuming you have all terrains in separate layers).

    I am going to say this is finished... for now. I already have ideas on how to improve it, so I'm sure you will all be bored with another version in the future.
