Amazing first map.

My suggestions:
Desaturate the map it bit, see what it looks like.
You have nailed the forest outlines. Well done.
Try to carve the forests around the roads - the map will look a lot better for it.
Don't use the labels with empty fills. Fill them with something and keep the colour of all your labels consistent by visual importance rather than place. With a map like this I would make all the labels the same colour - a drak grey maybe.
