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.

Thanks for the rep and the comment on Sephren, MistyBeee. It feels really good to hear those words from a cartographer with the eye for details and artistic style
Triple congratulations for winning the Atlas awards, Misty! Your maps bring together the best historical cartographic traditions with the finest contemporary postmodern illustration and that is exactly what the Best Overall Map should stand for. More than that, both The City of Kingkel and The War of Resh in Frel & Floris radiate with passion you poured into creating them, and that is an everlasting quality of the true art!
All my thanks for your vote on Hogsmeade, Katarina ! (And welcome on IP !! ^^)
Thanks for the rep and the comment for the Sword Coast map, MistyBeee!
