    I love the feel of this map. Very atmospheric. Screams fantasy-novel map or p&p rpg map to me...which is a good thing in my book Very much looking forward to where you are going with it. Will you do forests as well? I hope so.
    And, in my humble opinion, not everything has to "even out" ... so don't do ridges just because there are some in the bottom of the map...do them if you think that that's how the world looks like (geographically sound arguments are not absolutely necessary but it's awesome if they are...at least imo) or if it is necessary for the story you want to tell etc. etc. .

    Anyway, really nice map, have some Rep. !

    Thanx Eilathen, I will definitely be doing forests, tho it's something I dread, I've never actually made it past the forest stage on any map I've tried in the past, I'm a bit nervous about attempting it. I'm not sure weather I'll do individual trees clumped together like in the 16th, and 17th century maps, or if I'll go for a more modern type where its just bigger patches of trees.

    Most of the bottom half of this map is a sub tropic climate, so I was feeling some waterfalls which is why I initially did the ridges, plus I really enjoy maps with lots of ridges, I was thinking maybe this area could have been under water at some point or something, I don't know, but I think I'm beginning to ramble.

    Thanks again for the nice comment, I appreciate the encouragement.
