The Lands of Todes Grube - remapping

[Boslok]

Many thanks
I'm going to ditch the old style radiating coastline and go with a simpler/cleaner style and i might add a beach or two. I agree with everyone else about the hills and mountains, I was using a drop shadow and it's just not working. For the trees i did just use one of photoshops wet brushes and painted, I'm going to do the same hills and mountains, as Ramah suggested.

Quick update

I'm much happier with the new shadows under the mountains, thanks for the suggestions. Currently only the southern mountains have been fixed. Fixed many of the labels, a few still need work. Added a few snow caps on the mountains. Added some marshy areas. Removed the radiating coastline and added the City of Todes Grube crest.

As always any thoughts, suggestions are welcome.

Here's 2 versions of the crest. I'm not sure which one I prefer.

About done with this, just need to add the city icons and clean up the labels and I think I'll stop tinkering with it.

Here's a quick update showing the map without the labels and cities.
