    I can tell this is already going to be fantastic.

    I offer map commissions for RPG's, world-building, and books

    Epic! I love how you manage to detail the lands without making it messy.
    As I really love to see it expanded, I must say I'm not sold on the circular shape. In kinda prefer the feel of a semi-spherical frame I think.

    I like it but I have to admit that I still can’t say if the round is a border or the limit of this little planet ?

    Anyway this new move is an amelioration, without question !
    Thanks JO
    It's just a circular edge. I still have loads to do for the border stuff.

    Thanks Ilanthar.
    Can you show me an example of what you mean by a semi-spherical frame?
    Do you mean one that is mostly round, but cut flat at top and bottom?

    Almost. I was thinking of a flat bottom, mainly. A bit like a window or a cut view of a sphere (if that make sense).
    Anyway, I'm pretty sure you'll find a lot of top-notch thing to put around, so, it's probably not so important.

    Yay, i've made some progress.
    Not nearly enough, but like the spice miners of Dune, I'll keep working till the last minute.
    Or until I'm eaten by Shai Hulud. ;P [Bless the maker and his water. Bless the coming and going of him.]

    Anyhoo, here's where I'm at. I am enjoying making some fun terrains and new names.
    This one is going to be fun to come up with stories for. I'm diggin that east side flavor.

    This map is a beast and is unwilling to be tamed, it seems.

    It's very detailed.

    As the other have said, maybe an oval shape would be better.
    I mean you could cut the top and bottom to finish in time.

    Is that your hand writing with the other labels? You have a beautiful script, it really gives the names more distinction!
    I like the coastline a lot. How do you decide where to lay the little archipelagos and islands splitting off? They turned out very nice!

    I... what.... just.... HOW?! Look at those little details. LOOK AT THEM. How the hell do you do that?

    Seriously, man... I've seen tons of your work already and still I find myself constantly in awe of you drawing skills. I can already tell I'm going to love this map to pieces.
