    Hey, you're off to a good start! One issue I have is that your mountains are drawn from an isometric perspective, while the coastlines seem top-down, without the typical foreshortening. Its something I see a lot, so probably more of a stylistic choice than an actual mistake I assume.

    I completely redid the coast to reflect this advice.

    Oh woaw, I hadn't noticed you updated the first post instead of dropping your updates in subsequent posts. This is looking really great! Impressive redraw of the coastlines, what a difference with the first version!
