This guy, Kees Veenenbos, is mostly known for his Mars renderings (he did some work for NASA). This is his first attempt at the surface of Titan.

Very nice, though maybe a bit too rough. so far, no evidence of any peaks or ridges taller than a couple of hundred meters.

For some reason, there is a common perception that alien landscapes should be rough, as in having tall, craggy spires and cliffs. I wonder where that originated from -- it really is quite pervasive.
