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.

Here is the map of the campaign I play nowaday with my dear friends. It's a very dark world with cruels lords and thiefs arround the roads. The wizards here are considered as mad persons with devastating power. Landskape and cities icons are hand made. (Exept some computer added shadow on mountain... ok I cheat on it. But I sware it's the only thing I cheat on.) Hope you enjoy it !
