    Oh yeah, looking good! Mountains are fab and I really like the pine forests at the top too.

    I know it's a pain in the @ss drawing all those tree tops, but end result? Awesome.

    Continuing the forests and completed the title box. I also added an extra coast line before the faded coastal waves appear. It's a style I've seen others use, but I can't decide if I like it.

    I like the extra ring around the coast. It helps to clearly differentiate between land and water. Forests are looking awesome!

    I agree, the extra line looks good, kinda like a beach or shoreline along the coast. And I like the waves also.

    Looking very nice so far. I agree with the other comments. Though I do wonder if you have any regrets about choosing such a forest style... I hope it's not all by hand (I just finished a tree-intensive one myself). I bet you could probably get a decent result with yours using a pattern fill or clone stamp technique.

    It is all by hand, though I finished most of the forests. However, since I'm about to take a vacation, it looks like I wont be able to finish the second half, so for the purpose of the challenge I'll say the author just wanted one page as opposed to two facing pages
