Hi Keith,

Welcome to the guild! Your story is fun and I am glad you found a career that you love doing.

On how to translate from drawn to digital, that is one I am very familiar with, I started out drawing, but I sensed there was a lot of possibility with digital map making. So, at first I drew maps and scanned them. And I have had some real success with that( Thunder rock). But it is quite complicated and it limits you on how much you can alter when you need to make bigger changes.

Eventually, I transitioned to full digital. It helped that I got a drawing tablet, since it is much easier to do linework and smaller details with it. Still, I can vouch for the sheer amount of possibilities that opened up with making digital only maps. Much more room to undo or redo mistakes for one.

I hope you enjoy your time one here. And feel free to ask advice
Cheers,
Omri
