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.

May 2014 Entry - The Sahuagin point of view
the idea is to try to map an archipelago with the point of view of an underwater race, So i'll try to make the map with the point of view of sahuagins, an underwater race from the forgotten realms. I first heard of that monster race by playing baldur's gate 2 and the interesting point is that they look like a kinda evolved race, acording to the architecture of their city, an important point to make a sahuagin mapper realise a quite "complex" map.
