    Very nice! I'm instantly reminded of our main man Ilanthar's work, and that's not a bad inspiration to have. I like the tone and the subtle shading on the mountains.

    The one thing that stands out to me is the labeling, that I think could still use some work. I'd personally avoid curving the city labels, and I'd highly recommend setting up different parameters for the labels that are on the ocean rather than on the land. For instance the stroke used looks fine against the landmass color, but is too dominant on top of the ocean color, and most likely not really needed there at all.

    Apart from the labeling hiccups, it's a fine first map. Some rep headed your way, once again welcome to the Guild!
