    Yea... I am digging that quite a bit with the change to the mountains. Now... I think you should think about some type of texture for the forests(or perhaps just some hint of tree trunks would do it to give it a bit of "height"

    I was thinking the exact same thing as you posted.

    Something subtle I tried just for kicks - throwing a photoshop spotlight on the whole thing to flatten out the saturation generally and also add a bit of camera fakery to make it look more like an actual piece of wood

    I did everything *but* the mountains and revised coast this afternoon. . . what was missing from the earlier mountains was connecting ridgelines. The damn things took eons to draw, tweak, and arrange for z-axis correctness.
