I agree with the other folks about making Mordor more forbidding.
Other than that, a spelling nitpick: You've got the Brandywine River spelled as 'Brandywhine', which I kind of like.

I like the Middle earth map more and more - very symbolic but also realistic.

@Diamond - I prefer the original "Baranduin"

Agree that I'd also like to see something more with Mordor. In my head I always picture the place with a sort of reddish tone, though I don't think that matches the book's description (I'm probably influenced by the art I've seen). I do think it would be good to something to differentiate from the surrounding area, even if only in the areas around Barard-dur and Mount Doom (the eastern parts of Mordor were supposed to be fertile, I believe.)

That's a huge amount of detail. Loving the textures.
Thanks! The map kinda disappeared but you can see some details in the "mordor zoom" on page 1. Will post the map again tomorrow.

If I may nitpick a bit, you have a couple of overlapping labels. Should be easy to fix them.
