I have this marked as a commission but I'm just sort of taking the intiative on this as I haven't heard back from the requester yet.
This is the idea
This is what I've come up with so far. I don't have any details about the size of the castle but extrapolating from the descrition it sounds like it might be small to medium size. I am not the best castle creator so this one is more "representational" than photo realistic.A castle with a wall in a semi oval shape off the side of a mountain to the north. with a village named "Fenton" to the south with about ten farms and a few other buildings. One road leading up from the village to the castle. Could a person do this for free to make a group of people happy?

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.

thanks, this is looking pretty good so far! Hundreds of times better than the chicken scratch i had drawn out on paper. The castle is the right size, could you keep the houses and farms no further north than they are (up=north).
I'm glad you like it. I'll keep everything south of where it is now.

I like it. Just one little problem.. The village is far from water. If could take out the water that would be great!
No problem. I put that in there as a whim to see what it would look like. I'll remove it![]()

I like that grass.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
-J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)
