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.

This is incredible! How have I missed this so far? I devoured all the Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories when I was very young (maybe a little too young!) and have always loved them as the archetype of Low Fantasy heroes. This world map is fantastic. Has it been published? [continues raving into the sunset...] cheers, Meshon
Thanks Meshon. No it isn't published. It was an entry for a monthly challenge. And ended up as a christmas gift for my brother
Does anyone know if there are tutorials on how to make a map like this?
Hey Sheldon, I didn't make some tutorial but you can find plenty of them here at the guild and all around the web
