    Wonderful work! The colour choice and the shape of the land are incredible.

As others have mentioned the limited color palette and simplicity of design and composition grants this piece clarity. There are lots of spaces for the eye to rest. In addition, I also enjoy the map border as well. Great job.

    Very nice work.
    Just one small note: it's a map of a continent, but I can not estimate the distance between the northern tip and the pass between the southern mountains

    Thank you guys! And you're right, this map could indeed use a scale. I'll hit up the clients and see if we can add it still. Thanks!

    A very well composed map that's easy on the eye and has some rather pleasing features like the way the sea fades away into the parchment. If I had one little criticism it would be the labelling for the mountains in the south - it could do with a bit more space around and between the letters as it's difficult to read as it is.

    *shakes head* How have I missed so many good maps lately? My apologies for not noticing this one sooner, Daniel, as it really is a great piece. I especially love the mountains and forests, and the lineart in general is elegant and clean all over. The only thing I don't like are the rivers... although I have to confess to not being able to really nail down what it is that bothers me about them, exactly. They look... too strong maybe? Or something? Just... wrong?

    I'm sorry, that really is the worst kind of critique one can give... Anyways, a great map nonetheless, I'll certainly rep you if I can!

    Thank you Kelleri, I think I see what you mean. The rivers don't bother me personally, but they are a bit strong.


    I also added a scale to the map (:

    I really like the subdued color scheme on the far-off perspective on this. The way you did the mountains makes this look as if it's been taken from a far-away vantage point.
