This worked like a charm. On top of that I also lowered the opacity down like Ascension and SG reccomended to about 16% which looks a lot better. I quite liked it being a strong colour but I guess it was a little too much on the rivers. My base map was the one I used originally for Vaniya so unlike Tear's tutorial, which puts the rivers on later and so theyaren't stroked like the coast, mine were already in my base layer.

Anyway, cheers for the views.
