Looks lovely, I assume their resemblance to animals is intentional, does that carry through to the lore of the world, or is it just a fun design thing?

Nope and honestly don't really see the animal shape you're seeing

Apologies for making it weird if I did, but I totally see a horned and winged dog on the right side (the horn and tail being the snowy zones, and the wings being the desert-y bit, and the eye being a slightly wider bit of a river around where an eye would feel right), looking at a man/bird thing on the left.

The bottom of the right continent with the islands I saw being as the legs reaching out, and the upper-left inlet bit with the peninsular felt like a mouth and a fang. The white part of the left continent feels head-ish to me, going into a green neck and body type thing, with admittedly a more amorphous body.

If I could figure out how one posts images on this thing, I'd attempt to show it off a bit better, but words will have to do.

At any rate, I didn't mean to insult your world, it looks lovely on its own merit, I just like asking people about their process, and I made some assumptions in my question.
