    Alright so here's the new update (and my attempt at making a -almost- finished map. I'm not fully satisfied with it, mainly because the shape of the kingdom let a lot of empty space top right and bottom left and it's kind of right to balance. Anyway, I've drawn some stuff to fill the bottom left but I'm wondering if it's overpowered or not. What do you guys think?

    That looks awesome Max.
    Love the added image, though it does add a lot of weight down there.
    It could be balanced with a nice creature in the sea, top right.
    If no sea creature, then maybe scale down some, but definitely keep the stones - they look great.

    Thanks J. Yea this is what I was thinking. Sea creature and compass were my first ideas but after some quck tests, I didn't have any convincing results that match with the stones or satisfy me. The stones illustration was even bigger at the start and I've already scaled it down. Maybe I'll have to do it again to let the bottom left breath a bit and see how it goes. But yea I would definitely keep it, since I've added some sacred stones related to each seasons on the map

    I really like the look of the stones too, adds a lot of flavor and balance Don't think it needs anything in the sea, or maybe something very small, a couple of ships if not a sea creature perhaps?

    I love the colors... awesome! So nice style. The stones are great ... maybe a bit too large.

    That looks fabulous! I agree, maybe, the stones are a little heavy/large - but my mind is drawing a blank at the moment for suggestions beyond what's been said already.

    That looks beautiful! Absolutely love it! Those stones look awesome, you are certainly an amazing artist.

    I agree with the others, make the stones a bit smaller.

    Thanks guys for the kind words and the advices. I'll probably go with a bit smaller stones and see how it looks.
