My First Map!

Hey everybody! I have something a bit different to share with you today. I mentioned in a previous post that I play Dungeons and Dragons with my friends. Well, sometime within the next few months, I will be trying my hand at running a game instead of just playing. I have been building my own world and with that, I have decided to draw maps of the continent that the story takes place on. 
I HAVE NEVER MADE A MAP BEFORE...
I have been working on it the past few days and, so far I am fairly proud of how it is turning out. All I really have done are big chunks of land but I will eventually have towns, roads, rivers, ect. 
This whole experience has been quite enjoyable and I feel like I am learning something new. 
The pictures I am posting are of the work I have completed so far as well as the original reference photo that I used for the shape of the continent. I hope you enjoy and feel free to let me know what you think! :)
**NOTE**
I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO THE ORIGINAL MAP IMAGE USED AS REFERENCE. I DO NOT KNOW WHO TO CREDIT AS I FOUND THE IMAGE ON GOOGLE BUT IT IS NOT MY IMAGE AND I AM NOT CLAIMING IT AS MY IMAGE.
