Map for Burning Wheel campaign

[Ilvarin]

Greetings!
It has been some time since my last post (technical issues), but I was wanting to put this one up for a little C&C. I threw it together in a couple of hours, and I am hoping for any advice to add to the artistic aspect, within the context of my campaign idea. The one word I want the map and background info to convey is "dirty". The central city, Mosford, is a backwater river crossing at the extreme frontier of a crumbling empire. It has always been occupied by some empire or another because it is the only river crossing for over 50 miles in either direction. But it has always been held as an invasion route, or against threat of invasion, not because of the trade that passes through. Consequently, it is a mashup of architecture and social microcosms. It is an ugly town, and just plain filthy.

Anyway, I want the map to convey that from the first glance, but I want it to be well-made on my part. I still have some labels to add, but most of the heavy lifting is done. I would greatly appreciate any advice for polishing it, however. Or any advice, for that matter.

I forgot to mention: the map was done in GIMP.

Thanks
