Some more progress. I will never finish this if I try to do it all by hand. I wrote and applied some selective photoshop actions to give the roof tops more depth. I think that they worked fairly well although I notice that some of the buildings I thought were selected, have been missed and I accidently created a bunch of 'transparent buttons' in odd places, but I think I managed to get rid of them.
Anyway, here is the latest installment.

Looks cool! I can't identify the building next to the castle in the NW. Looks like a carousel

@ JT. Actually I have a lot more planned on this baby. I want to label the districts and streets directly and also have a legend on the right.

I have now completed the colouring. Nit-picking encouraged

I'm really liking the variety of rooftops here. To be nit picky, the jetties look too similar to me, same shapes and colours.
I can easily see myself wanting to borrow this for my own campaign!

I like it very much! Have you tried to add a bit of depth to the coast or perhaps a soft brownish stroke here and there?
I think it looks superb. I love the little windy streets, the small courtyards, the little neighbourhoods; the whole thing just feels right.
Just one question though: In the lake you have what looks like a half submerged jetty in the top left...is that what it's meant to be?
@ Crayons. Good point, I agree and I will look at a bit more variety.
@ Katto. I haven't even started thinking about how I am going to handle the coast. I guess I will rough it up a bit and add a glow and stroke.
@ Ravells That jetty is a mistake born of trying to reduce the number of layers and maybe missing a colour select step. I will fix it.
Thanks to each of you for your comments.
