This is my basic outline of my map. The story starts on the top left continent, near the eastern/upper border, then progresses south and then finally East (the eastern ocean area is approximately 1000 miles, and there is a 500 mile desert from the border going inland, making low level adventurers at extreme risk of death if they choose to trek the large desert)

My question is, how do i go from here? I want to make an ocean and such and then add mountains and forests, but I do not know how to. I have Adobe Creative Cloud and a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet.

I have seen on other peoples gorgeous maps that they have a coastline that shows little curvy lines to illustrate waves, but I have no idea how to do that lol

The extent of my skill is drawing mountains and cities by watching and imitating fantasticmaps . com website. (It actually inspired me to get PS and the tablet and recommended me go here for help)
