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.

Thank you for the rep and the kind words. It makes me quite happy to think that people can look at my maps and notice the inspirations I work off of.
Thank you very much for the rep !

Thank you very much for the rep comment snodsy !
Thanks so much for the rep and kind comment, Snodsy ! Glad you loved the map ! ^^
Thanks a lot for the REP ! It's true the colors a bit "strong"... I did copy that style from Guillaume Tavernier's work !
LOL! You and I both know that I talk too much sometimes I've just been looking at some of the work done by my other friends out there on the forum, and I'm stunned. I think I've actually been left quite a long way behind! I'm so very glad that you are ok, and doing your thing with the furniture. I will have a look at your site later and see what you've been up to And we all know that family comes first, but we still miss you very much! You take care yourself, and look after that growing family of yours
Thank you so much for the rep and the comment on Corvallen, Snodsy. It was a huge surprise to see you making a comment on my other map as well. I do hope that you are well, and that we might see you around now and then again in the future Oh, and as for that 'Sage' thing - it just means I've talked everyone to death over the last 2 years
Thank you for the rep comment snodsy. I actually had a good loock at your Silk Road map before making mine for some ideas. I miss you and your maps here !
Thanks a lot for the rep, Snodsy
