    Map World of Toril!

    This is my first major map that I've made. I've learned so much from this place, so a big shout-out to y'all for helping me along. ^^
    Obviously it's pretty basic, but I like it a lot, really went for that "Lord of the rings map" kinda look, and I think it turned out ok. Maybe it's a bit busy, but I kinda like that, makes it easier to hide fun things in the map. For instance, there are a lot of entrances to various mountains in the map, but you'd have to look to find them!

    Looking for input for the map, things that could be made better for the next one, as well as if anything isn't quite right with it! Was thinking about adding borders perhaps, or paper-folds, but did not find any decent textures for that last one.

    Anyhow, this is the map, hope y'all like it! ^_^

    Wow that is a really fine map! Well done

    I wonder if you could make it a little bit lighter, so the dark parchment doesn't overwhelm the artwork, that would be my only suggestion. I notice you didn't put in any rivers, but I assume that was deliberate.

    This is the same Toril from Forgotten Realms?

    No, it wasn't meant to. The guy who came up with the name did not know about it at the time. Currently thinking up a new name! ^^

    This is very well done for your first map! I'm an absolute sucker for Tolkien style maps and I'll never get tired of them.

    The title looks fantastic and works really well with the style of the map, and I love the little ships you've added. I have to second Chick's comment that the parchment is a wee bit dominating and you could try toning it down just a little. Don't think you have any rivers? That's maybe something to add to your next map. Overall, a lovely map. Well done and have some rep.
