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.

Hi Chashio! Thank you for your vote on the annual challenge map! Really appreciated
Hi Chashio, thank you for the rep on Darrovyr! I really had a great time making that map, so I'm glad you like it
Thank you for the rep and the kind words, Chashio! I really appreciate it
Well, you're welcome, but it was just a tiny thing. I like how you finished the map. And thanks for starting up the "reality" thread... I'll see if I can add something to it soon, maybe in the way of illustrative pictures as I think you covered 100% of my knowledge in the first five points Though I just increased my workload for the next 4-5 months to the maximum possible amount (or close enough), so it may take a few grabbed moments here and there.
