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.

I like the mood this one portrays. It gives me the sense that some difficult journey lies ahead in any direction. Great job with this one.
Thanks, I had a lot of fun drawing this one
Looks very much like you did. If I could afford it, I would have you draw my world, but I've decided I'll tread the dangerous road and try to craft it myself. May I learn a lot from you and the other cartographers here.
Good luck with it! There's a ton of inspiring stuff here at the guild.
Telduria, After spending an hour checking it out, I'm sure this place existed..lol This map makes me want to go and find it..
Hehe not sure it's such a welcoming place
I would LOVE to see a time lapse video of one of these styled maps. Anyway that's possible?
that would be boring imfo Anyway this would mean some video work and I'm not really into this.
Aw, that's to bad. I would just love to see and example of how you create this from start to finish. Specifically a style like this.
It would be a long run
