    Great read and some very cool images..

    Even if I am correct, I would still advise you to follow your heart. This whole Cartographers Guild thing, it seems to me, is more about passion and skill and learning new techniques than it is about definitions and rules.

    Ravs, once again you read my mind ... I've been looking at google maps of old cities that used to have walls for the last couple of days trying to get a plan down for a walled city map on paper. Thanks for posting

    Info The Walled Cities article available as a PDF document

    Hi, All.

    I really enjoyed reading the article which ravells linked. It was very interesting and informative.

    I've created a PDF document of the article and made it available in the Tutorials Available in PDF Format thread.

    The link can be found in the "Informative Articles and Manuals" section of Post 1 on Page 1.

    Enjoy.

    Regards,

    Vandy
    In the end you will see, you is you and me is me.
