You really need to just release it. Maybe even open source it. Lol

Yeah, this is really cool, I love 3D maps, very immersive!

Very impressive work on the 3D! The way you did the waters and coasts are excellent as well.

I have been running it some more and working out how to thin down those rivers and make it look a lot nicer. Also fixed up the lighting a bit more.

I am pretty happy with this now so ill go on to look at putting some towns and names on it next.

I have put some towns and tracks on the map now. I can see that I am a bit out with my mask on the left side so I need to move that track.

The region of Khaluk is mainly made up of small villages with some bigger forts around the borders. There are some additional forts on the peaks with the fire lanterns in them as an alarm to warn across the land of problems. Most of them have a small garrison. The majority of the people live on the coastal regions especially in the many inlets and natural harbours.
The slightly paranoid high Khal lives in the capital which is situated high up in the mountains and all his goods and services come via the track from the nearest port.

Elsewhere you claim you need a national emblem with a crude crayon on a shield. Naaaaah. That would be unfitting. Something like this befits the grandeur of the land or the mapper (take your pick :-) ):

It has the anti-undead Standard Khaluky Helmet and a shield (as one does). The shield is the type with a bump in the middle, because you work like a boss. The shield is patterned in patchwork, because you work at piecing our stuff together. And of course - a red robe.

Hacked together from Wikimedia Commons and Pixabay open/ reusable license images. Couldn't think of an appropriate fromage tie-in, but the whole thing is a bit cheesy, so there you go.

Looking very good, I really like the textures and the mountains.

Looking good - I only wonder if the big rivers should be .. bluer?

[Redrobes]

Well yes probably I have kinda not put much effort into my map and have been a bit tied up with work and the composite map. The bit I really don't like about my map is the mountains are too rounded and way too large for the scale of land being done. And those rivers would be many 10's if not 100's of miles across in places. Its a bit unreal for what was supposed to be a realistic terrain map.

If you look on any satmap the rivers are not all that blue. But maybe mine should be more than they are.
