    Hello Hieronymus_Blaze! Thank you!
    I use photohop, wilbur and QGIS
    All my maps based on height map.

    You're expanding your world, I see .

    Yes. It is rather a necessity. Certain parts of the map take me hostage and force me to think at least roughly what other continents look like.
    As you probably know, initially I did not want to be distracted by other territories. But unfortunately they have too strong an impact on geography.
    In fact, I went down the wrong path of building the world from a small piece of land to global tectonics.
    On the other hand, it is quite interesting and gives the impression of a real geographical discovery. And plausibility is the test of my models. The difficulty is that I have to iteratively go back all the time and make adjustments. I still cannot say that any particular section is fully completed.
    Here's a small sketch of the world at the moment.

    Very realistic, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
    Very intrigueing how the tectonic plates, and faultlines dictate the shapes and elevations.

    P.S. I added map with pink lines that show my problem places that I didn`t like or it`s look strange for me. I will glad any advice about improvet it
    Hello.

    I'm trying to understand your use of DEMs.

    1 - So to get to this stage, you stopped drawing your map heights by hand, and instead decided to paste in real DEM heights. Correct?
    2 - And it looks like you then applied Wilbur on top of that. Is this correct?

    Now I`m working on islands arcs on the west and east of continent. I see some problem places, that I whant try fixe with wilbur mask(not shure will it be work or not)
    - About your volcanoes, in the east of the middlesea: are these volcanoes taken from DEMs as well?

    Hello again,

    You wrote "... unrealistic smooth coasts(I mean brush movement, I need remake for more realistic coastline erosion)..."

    1 - How did you make the coastline more realistic: with Wilbur too? Or did you do it by hand ("brush movement")?

    I continue to make cosmetic changes to the map. My main focus now is on increasing the detail of the central mountain system. I add new watersheds and sharpen them to emphasize tectonic specificity.
    I finally added an island arc in the east
    If you see any inaccuracies in the believability of the relief, please let me know.

    - This island arc you added to the east of the continent: were these islands hand drawn, or did you paste them in from DEMs?

    Your work is amazing.

    Hello. Thank you.
    Yes. I use real world DEM. But in difficult places i use hand drawn height map.
    I made some blueprints in wilbur like volcano
    My landmasses and borders I drew only by hand
