    Map NORDANA - The Frozen North

    This was a personal project. It's a map of a cold and beautiful land that was inspired by the Icelandic sagas and the Viking era. It's the land where our d&d campaign takes place. Since this is a personal map it may change slightly in the future, especially if I realize I don't like a name or placement of a town or point of interest.

    Something about the map key still bugs me. I might change that in the future. What do you guys think? Feel free to critique.

    EDIT: Oh, and tell me if any of the names sound dumb to you.

    High quality map JonPin! I think the labeling really brings this map together, though I might suggest that where possibly, try not to have labels crossing rivers. The font is great though, may I ask which one you chose?

    The colors fit well, and I think the title/compass is a nice touch. Solid work.

    This is a really nice map, but I think the transition between the rivers and the coast could have been better! =)

    I'll redo the rivers probably. I haven't noticed it before, but you're right. Thanks for sharing

    The font is HamletOrNot, just something I found online.

    Good work and excellent coloring! I have to agree with Obbehobbe about the rivers though.

    Really nice map! You might consider changing the font just for the number on the travel scale, it's hard to read. Otherwise the font looks good. Nice coloring

    I really like the soft colors; almost reminds me of winter at dusk. The naming convention seems solid to me as well. Lovely work.

    Cheers,
