Map of the Continent of Gurn

**Dndungeoneer** · 07-11-2010, 12:04 PM

Hello Cartographers!

I am looking for a skilled cartographer to create a map of the continent of Gurn which is part of the campaign setting that I am creating. Any help would be great and appreciated. I'd like whoever would generously do this for me to read my descriptions that I set down of Gurn and create the map from their own imaginative viewpoint. You can find the little of my campaign setting that I have set down here:

Rough Paint of Gurn (As well as I can make it that is.)

Description of Map

I'd like the map to be look like the Faerun map that I linked below in terms of Style and that pretty much describes how I imagine the map looking. However I wouldn't need it nearly as big as this is simply a small continental map.

Time Constraints

* No real time limits. I'd like to not wait a long amount of time. (More than two weeks.) But I'm asking for free skilled labor so I am flexible.

Quality & Size

* I'd appreciate a quality map.
* I don't really know what to ask size-wise. It simply needs to be big enough that all features, geographical and otherwise can be seen clearly. (Example: http://www.mythopoeicpress.com/fr_faerun_overview.jpg)

Obviously more information can be given when required.

Thanks,
Dndungeoneer

Hi Dndungeoneer, please take a look at the sticky on the top of this forum here.

That's a lot of work for no pay but maybe someone wants the practice so good luck.

Just added a map that I made to illustrate briefly sort of what Gurn looks like.

I thought I would try a new style and some new brush tricks, but it didn't turn out nearly as well as I'd hoped--too embarassing to post. It is, however, the first time I've ever thought to myself "wow, this would have been way easier and turned out better if I'd had a tablet."

Might try again and post my work tomorrow!

What's the scale?

**Dndungeoneer** · 07-16-2010, 12:22 AM

Well, from the fork of the Winspur, I'd like it to take about 5 days of traveling to get there by foot. I'm really horrible with scale, I'm sorry.

Okay this one is slightly less embarrassing. I haven't quite finished yet, but this is what I've got so far.

I think you pretty much nailed it. The only difference I see is the perspective on the mountains. In the original it is top down instead of (ISO? not sure if that is the correct term.).

**Dndungeoneer** · 07-16-2010, 10:19 AM

Wow, Reckless, that's really good! You said you aren't done, but it already looks great! I appreciate your efforts very much! The perspective of the mountains, I like better in Reckless' rendering. Only feature I can really see missing is the East Hills before one reaches the Meldic Coast. The one thing I forgot to add to my example map was the river that flows through the Forest of the Emerald-Wash, called the Emerald-Wash.
