The Isles of Soquakask

[Flaterectomy]

After fiddling around with my first map a while, trying to improve it and turning it into a nasty mish-mash of different styles on several occasions, I decided I should move on to something else to try some different techniques.

I named the area The Isles of Soquakask purely for the sake of naming the area.

At the moment, I am uncertain about my rivers. I just can't seem to get them to look as if they're not just blue squigglies lying on top of the map. Additionally, I haven't added any forests yet, I still need to decide what technique to use. Given the style of the map, I should probably visit Google Maps and have a good look at the satelite images.

Of course, any and all comments, suggestions and criticism are welcome.
