Lovely map Bohunk. I think it shows great artistic skill and grasp of subtlety of colour and lines. I think its really cool and nicely put together. I also liked your names fro towns and things. They just struck a chord with me.

Wow thanks guys. You've really made my day with those comments! It's nice to have all the time and hard work I put in to maps appreciated like that. Thanks again.

I just wanted to post my final version of this map, (unless someone finds a ridiculous error of course!) The actual version is 20+ meg so this a smaller version. I decided to stay away from borders right now, I think it looks better without.
I wanted to thank those that have helped and complimented me.
You can post it over at the finished map forum. If you like, one of the CL's can move this last post there...

That's a stunner. Beautifully done - and I can't believe that's a CC3 map.
That is one heck of a rocking map!
Really spectacular...

Truely a beautiful piece of work! One thing that disappointed me slightly was that the only thing that doesn't look 19th Century is the shadowing around the coast. Create the horizontal lines around the coast instead of the shadow and you'll have the perfect 19th Century look!
Bloody amazing otherwise. Love it!
