Lasgrian: First Hand Drawn looking Map
Here is my second map ever. It's my first one with a hand-drawn look. I made it with Paint, Paint.net and Terraj's fractal terrain.
Feel free to comment. I like to improve my work.
This is the old version. Look below to find the newer version.

If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

This is beautiful. I love the oversized trees and mountains; they make it feel more like an old hand-drawn map.

Agreed with Ascension, although I unfortunately have no advice to give on how to do that; I've never used the software you're using. All in all though it looks pretty good

Ascension: Yeah, thanks for the advice. I'm not sure about if I should delete the white in the trees though?
Absinthesparrow: Thanks! That's exactly the look I wanted.
Gidde: lol thanks anyway.
Here's the new version of my map.
