I really love most of the screenshots, you've got really original ideas and seem to implement them perfectly. Some of the architecture you put into new environments brings out new great sides in the design.
Besides being able to really design a map beautifully other BIG plusses, which make you much better than the average world builder are the facts that you retexture things and that your texturing doesn't suck.

There could be improvements in your custom geometry though, such as the roads should always be a little lower than their surroundings (creatures walk on them -> earth gets worn off / sort of eroded -> surface lower than rest) and the same thing with your patches of grass on brown earth. The fact that stuff like that feels real is because it is, but it's not because nature was having fun back then, it's also a sort of erosion, this time the real one, created by rain and wind: Lets assume there are slight hills where your patches of grass are and lets also assume that there once was grass everywhere. It rains down, the rain runs down on the hills but then gathers in the small valleys that will then become drains with a much bigger power, talking about erosion. Over the years they will cause more mud than grass to be in these drains, thus creating a pattern like the one you painted but with more visible hills where the grass is  :uno:

Now there's not much to say about the worldbuilding but I'm curious: you said there's 70% implemented already, what about npcs, items, quests etc? Did you add them? Did you spawn them? Because that's something that you really shouldn't underestimate.
I also always was like "nah, not much of a deal we'll do that in 1-3 days once all the other stuff is done" but actually a wise thing to do is have someone work parallel to you on that stuff.
