Review
For years now Diamond has been producing high quality maps here at the Guild. It is an absolute scandal that it has taken this long for one of his pieces to receive the Cartographers Choice Award. Western Numeria is a gem of a map. The composition of the map, it's muted hues juxtoposed with the vibrant red of some of its labels, the lovely hatch-work mountains are just a few of the map's many fine qualities. Although it has been a long time coming Diamond, congrats on job well done.

This is a rough-and-ready map made to help lock down some ideas for a RPG setting that I've been building around ideas from several sources, including old-school Runequest, ERB's Barsoom stories, and more.

A well deserved award, for a stunning map and amazing Cartographer. Since I joining the guild, Diamonds maps have been amongst the most inspiring, and yet unique maps I have seen. Rich with both character, and realistic features, Diamonds maps captures a feeling that few manages to even approach. I only wish that there were more!

Congratulations,
Tainotim
