Map is looking great and I agree with the others, the compass is great. A couple years ago the challenge was to create a compass, I think you would have won.
Nice looking map. Personally though I prefer the version without the colored borders. It's less busy.

Thank you arsheesh and I wonder what you will think when I add all the names for towns, lakes, and riversIn hindsight maybe I shouldn't have chosen to draw a map in the style of the masters of the 18th century.
I am still learning and despite a lifelong fascination with maps, these are only the first few attempts on drawing one myself.
I can only assume the voters will like all of your great map, but you never know. They are just a bunch of people voting, not trained judges. If you are happy with your map then don't worry about votes. If you win, then Great, if you don't win, then so what, you still made a great map.

Wise words from Bogie above!
This is looking good and there are lots of nice touches apart from the compass. I really like the ship in the bottom left.
Oho! Really nice now! Awesome colors!
The map looks authentic good flow and colors. The art and symbols match good job. The only thing that stands out to me is the map creases stop before the map border.

I think you did a really good job but if you ask me I'd change some of the mountains. Maybe look around for a brush that has mountain chains, just one isn't good for me, however if you like it don't change it of course![]()
Haven't had much time for working on my map last week and when I reopened it there wasn't much I wanted to change except that I tried a version without colors. I wonder what you think about that?
