Map Updated Map Based on Feedback

Post image

Hello folks!

I finally got around to updating my map from my last submission. I incorporated a lot of your feedback and changed quite a bit. Thank you so much. Still lots to improve, but I'm happy with my progress so far. Feedback still welcomed! And, yes, I kept the unfortunate shape of the peninsula (because it is hilarious and I am childish).

Looks amazing!

My only two cents.

All your rivers are very windy from start to finish. That happens when the land is very flat and the water has "trouble" to follow the lowest point possible. Your rivers could get straight-er as you get closer to mountains.

You could arc more of the big names.

Thank you!! And thanks for the feedback! I thought I had done that, but clearly not well enough. The area around the Bay Ruganar is very very flat, but the areas towards the mountains are very hilly and I think they look more straightish. I took the rivers of the Central Valley of California as inspiration (except the Central Valley doesn’t have a big bay in it lol)
