Nah, no point in racing. Map-making needs inspiration too, and sometimes that just won't be hurried 😊.

A scale-bar is pretty much essential, though north by default can often be assumed as "the top" of a map.

It's easy to think a map like this won't really take that much time until you start it - we've all been there, I suspect!

Worth the effort in the end though, as this looks really good!

Thanks very much Remy!

Slightly shocked on doing a quick tally-up today, while downloading the latest Atlas version, to discover this makes 140 maps of mine now in the Atlas! I'd forgotten quite a chunk of the earlier materials I'd done, looking at the list.

Still some way behind the great leaders of Quenten and JimP of course, but not doing too badly by comparison 😊

Plus, I think once the contributions from the recent mapping contest are added, this could take us over 850 maps in all!

Lot of detail there, certainly!

If this was going into the Atlas, I'd suggest a rethink on some of the labelling, as to my eye much of it's getting lost amongst the terrain in places (using the larger Gallery version to check this). Indeed, there are labels visible on that version that I didn't spot on the Forum one. Since it's for personal use, that's probably less of an issue though!

So Elric of Pulp Cthulhu now? 😉
