It's all good. Solo or collaborative effort, it's all the same. Still looks good, so I'll just spread the rep around a bit.

I will say as a collaborative effort, i really did push myself in ways I might not have otherwise. I would have left it as done on the first day
But adjusting oplacements and features around really helped to drive a story (and bring in some more from what I gather) so I feel like the sum is worth a lot more than the individual parts
yay!

Absolutely... there were things that happened by random chance in the textures that made me rethink certain areas of the West, which in turn caused me to rethink the politics attached to them.
That's the best when the artist and writer can work together to really come up with some new directions.
That said I can't wait for us to do our next map, The East!

Whew!
Okay that's all labeled now... the only thing left for me to do is touch up the roads a smidge and think long and hard if there is any room for the bloody river names...
Here is the penultimate version. The next one will be put in the "Finished Maps" section.

Excellent!
Btw, i would leave the river names off at this time. The northern areas have room for it, but if you name one you must name them all, and the southern areas are packed enough as it is.

I think my brain melted somewhere around Eisenbrück
Agreed on the river names. That will just have to wait for the document that explains each nation.

Okay, minor critique, and this may not be important... but the eastern-most mountains are called...
The Dragonspie Mountains?
As in... Dragon's Pie?
If you've heard the phrase Cow Pie, I think you know where I'm going with this. I'm guessing it's supposed to be Dragonspire... but I thought I'd check.
I think, therefore I am a nerd.

Pimping my worldmap here. Still WIP... long way to go, but I'm pretty proud of what I've done so far...
Well . . . you know, in the old west, they used cow pies to start camp fires, maybe they could use dragon pies to start bonfires!

Shouldn't it be Dragonspire Mountains?

I'm just glad someone ELSE caught the typo this time, I think AslanC is getting tired of me correcting him
