You cought me. The texture could be better on the hills, for sure.. as 
well as the overall form. I just used a quick gradient pigment map with 
a light sand color, and a slope pigment for the hills.

The water color was a very simple absorbing media, the blue-green tone 
of the water is mainly becuase of the light coloration of the area 
undeneath, if you look closely, I think you can see some instances where 
the gradient restarts underwater.
