    This latest version is a little weird to my eyes because it's round but there are no graticule lines... is it an hemisphere or an ortographic projection?

    Pixie, this is no world modeling of earth-like planet. This is fake-realistic world. Because this worl under big air dome, space - is a big ocean and if you go to east/west/north/south on the sea you come in space. The sun this is underside of this land and this land is underside of sun.It is like a split personality of the demiurge. (when\if i finish this world I will draw si-fi earth-like world with correct tectonic plates, erosion and etc. Sorry if I disappointed you) But culture, history born in this world like in real world(with small magic odour)
    I will change border (or delete)if it embarrasses you So there isn`t curvature projection.

    Oh, I didn't know that. I'm embarrassed to assume it was just an ordinary "con-earth" - now I know it's not.

    Please, please, don't delete or change anything in your stuff because of me - I'm nobody

    Looks very very good. But.. have you tried a version without the blue rivers? The picture almost seems like a satellite picture, but at that distance/scale, rivers are too small to be seen.
    The mountains are very realistic, that's amazing. Even if, at the same time, Wilbur's work is quite visible.

    Thank you Pixie. Yes I have. I will be work with it. Unfortunately my skill with hand drawing DEM is bad. I can`t draw it like you (and my computer too, it always crashed when I try))) My next step work with textures and shading. I try minimize Wilbur print.

    OK. My own perfectionist-destroyer said that I will redraw this map again. Now I think that I better understand the tectonics of my world. But now it looks like a mirror child of Africa and Scandinavia, and I do not like it. Tectonics professional I need your help. What you think about it?
    I show you 2 map. Tectonic plates and Ice shield.

    Well, I was going to say that the map looks absolutely amazing!

    Tbh, I'm not sure if there was anything wrong with the prior version. It looks plausible enough to me. Do you have some ideas where you think the prior map went wrong and needs to be improved? Or do you wish to expand this into a world map, which makes the whole tectonics business a lot more complicated?
