Hello.

[Forcas]

I'm Forcas. I've recently (one month now) started playing D&D and I love it. However I had several GM's who preferred for us to imagine the scenery, and the combat maps were looking awful. So I looked into it, is it that hard to design a map? Yes, it is. But it's so rewarding to finish a good map. I've taken the position of Assistant GM, since I'm not that good with role-playing. My maps so far are pretty sloppy and I bet in a few months I'll look back and laugh at how horrifying they are. But I'm here to learn, so let the learning begin.

PS: I'm not a native English speaker, so I'm sorry for the mistakes.

Welcome aboard and good luck in your mapping. There's some really good how-to tutorials on here that can yield some very solid results somewhat quickly (at least where map making is concerned).
Feel free to ask questions as you progress.
