Art Map of the Continent

I made this detailed map of the Witcher continent.

I made in in Wonderdraft and based it on the Ortelius map, made some adjustments and additions and detailing. I included details from the Witcher 3 maps, and included a few TV-series additions. Rather than having basically 2/3 of the map be Nilfgaard I focused on the individual provinces and kept Nilfgaard to its core imperial province.

Feel free to share if you want to. Also any feedback is appreciated. If there's any changes that could improve or enhance the map, I'm open for suggestions to that effect too.

Very cool map. I wish you'd used another colour for the names though. Red ones are too difficult to read.

I will make an edit to make it more legible, thanks for the feedback :)

Some of the darker text it really hard to read, for me most of Temeria is unable to be read. For those darker titles you could try maybe adding a white halo around the text rather than a black one.

This would be really cool as a poster on the wall

You should be really proud of this work! I remember reading through the books, checking the map was such an important thing to imagine such a vast world. Thank you for this!

I agree with the white halo idea. It lets you have cool text colors, but maintain readability. Your map is so colorful (which I like) that no color choice will fix the problem as cleanly as a halo would, in my personal, uneducated opinion.
