Here is an attempt at a colored, realistic map of Abred, the world for my Cad Goleor Setting.

This is very much a work in progress. Here is both the draft, and the parchment version of the map, for reference.

I used GIMP, along with RobA's Artistic Regional Map Tutorial for the bulk of the map, supplemented with Arsheesh's Photo-Realistic Forest Tutorial, and kjdavies' mountains tutorial.

Seeing it in color, the forests look really sparse, so I think I will have to add some more, or make some of them bigger.

Not sure if there is a better way to do glaciers. Are there any tutorials on that? I haven't found any so far.

I also have some spots where I want to add in some bogs, but don't know how would be a good way to depict them. Right now the best idea I have is to just add in a bunch of little "mini-lakes" interspersed between trees in those areas. Any thoughts or suggestions?
