Two concepts here used beautifully that I just love:
1. Isthmus connecting the continent to the south pole
2. the South pole having a warm spot (something I had thought of myself a long time ago) rendering the idea of the south pole being more like a desert than a pole, causing it to suddenly become a far more interesting place because, like a desert, it isn't a dead end.
Also, totally dig the region of Mertiolyp, even thought i have no idea how to pronounce it.
Exceptional friggin work. If I ever get to host a D&D campaign, I'll be tempted to use this.

Thank you for the compliment and the fav!
I updated the map and increased its size significantly. This should not improve the quality, but I can properly work with smaller bended labels now.

Yeah, I do not make or intend to make any money from it so I hope M.H. will be ok with me using 25 year old works of his in an unfinished piece as long as I clarify it.
I did use Brushes from Deviant Art (see description) but also modified them and drew some myself, and use them less and less. I never did any art stuff before this map, so the brushes really helped with my first steps.
-- Time spent --
Hmm, I started October last year and I guess it took me about 300-350 hours so far, but a good chunk of that was spent getting used to the interface and redrawing my first 50 hours of work when I switched to a higher resolution. I noticed that I work much more efficiently now than I did when I started.
Ich bin auch gerade dabei meine erste Karte zu erstellen und i-wie nie zufrieden. xD
StΓ€ndig will ich was neu machen.
Hehe, das GefΓΌhl kenn' ich. Ich denke, dass Fantasy Karten im speziellen sehr anfΓ€llig fΓΌr neumachen sind. Aber sobald mal ein bisschen was am Papier ist und das Ganze Gestalt annimmt, wirds einfacher.
Thank you very much for your feedback, much appreciated. I'm looking forward to your own first map...

Thank you very much!
Just noticed how big the png file was, so I switched to a much smaller jpg. Sadly the resolution of the displayed version is somewhat limited and I wouldn't know how to sidestep it...
Edit: Found out that you CAN display the original size, yay.
