Welcome to Vinuba: creating a country

Hi guys!

For the last month, I've been working on a map of an imaginary country I've been calling Vinuba.

It began in paper sketches, and then I started drawing it in paint.net. My process is to draw a rough sketch using the paintbrush, then a more second but detailed sketch, and finally a fine, pencil outline.

It's a small country in the Central Pacific, composed of one main island (Grand Vinuba?), and a few smaller islands off the coast. Maybe I'll throw in a few atolls in there, too.

The culture isn't completely fleshed out yet, but it should be a weird mix of Polynesian, British, and Russian culture.

Without further or due, here's the current state of the map:

This might just be my phone not showing the image correctly, but the map doesn't look complete to me--it just looks like a line that doesn't connect back to itself. Am I just experiencing technical difficulties?

Also, the Russian name for the country would be Винуба. If it's a Republic, then either Винубская Республика or Республика Винуба.
