[WIP] Newbie's first map

[KnitWitch]

So, after browsing through the tutorial section and deciding that I like the hand drawn look/water colour-ish thing and looking through Zombie Nirvana's podcast I hazarded a step into photoshop. So here's my first attempt at mapping out Klaut, the world where the story I'm writing/editing takes place. I'm planning to do country maps (and maybe city and town maps) as I go along in hopefully the same style.

I'm not certain about the rivers, both because I can't hold my hand steady (oh fine motorskills, where art thou) and my tablet seems to have gone missing. I think I need more rivers.

Any pointers and advice would be greatly appreciated.

ps: planning to do the wear and tear on the colour and ink later, once the map is complete.
