Welcome!
The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.
Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

Hey ladiestorm, have you started your city map yet? I went looking for a thread, but haven't found one.
Thanks for the rep Ladiestorm. And also wanted to comment back - your map was splendid. I'm glad you've really jumped in and really engaged in the Guild. I saw someone reference your map the other day when making a map request. Further proof for you. Go check it out - darn, can't post a link in here. Go check map request 'Professional fantasy worldmap and city/region/battle maps for RPG book'
