    Haha awesome, using actual Croatian city names. So cool for me since I have been to almost all of them

    Looks like a beautiful area, I'm also looking to some Croatian/Serbic folklore names for some of the areas - like Leshy Forest (woodland fairy), Huldran Forest, Vodnik (male water spirit) for a lake, etc. Feel free to suggest, I'm just making the stuff up as it is.

    JE I'll be working on the Text legibility after I finalize the land colors, will probably need the stroke though.
    Lingon, I may try a different shape, same brownish red color, thanks

    It really is beautiful, its one positive trait

    You could always read this, the greatest fairy tales written by an acclaimed writer Ivana Brlic Mazuranic (4 time nobel award nominee) : https://ia800202.us.archive.org/28/i...sofl00brli.pdf

    Too bad the names of characters were also translated :/

    About suggestions..south stari grad means south old town which isnt such a great name for a mountain range

    Otherwise there are hundreds of little islands in Croatia so a list of their names quite comprehensive and could be used to name things

    ### Latest WIP ### MAP #12 - Dalmatia

    Did the Mountain shadow/highlights, colored areas, added more type (still playing), added density areas for cities/towns (not sure, but kind of like the idea of showing the sprawl of each city/town. Click image for larger version.

    It's looking really good. I think the styles are bending fairly well.

    Your map has a very pleasant style which is really yours. I like the lineworks and the coloring. Well done !

    ### Latest WIP ### MAP #12 - Dalmatia

    Update, tried a different forest look, redid the city sprawl (less busy), added agricultural fields, played with the background. Still need to get the text right, work on that this week as well as the Header. Comments welcome.Click image for larger version.
