Moving into the water.

I've just added texturing and blending to the oceans. The effects are intentionally subtle compared to those on land, but I still believe they definitely serve their purpose. I'm showing off a continent using the latest effects. The image is 2048*2048 pixels, so click on it to see it in its native resolution.

Generated map

There are exceptionally good cartographers and artists out there, and I am pretty sure computer generated graphics will never be on par with those creations. However, when it comes to creating topology and continental shapes, this is already way past what I would be able to do manually.
