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.

Hello. I'm creating a map for a homebrew d&d game that will eventually evolve into something new. I'm creating a new world from scratch, and I mean the world itself is "new". Over the course of building this world I'll post pictures, sections of map, and probably ask a list of ignorant questions. And I may ask for input on the world itself, if anyone is willing to put their two cents in.
Jack here, Decided to set up a blog to stay motivated and track my progress. I have a few projects on the go. Some hand drawn some made in Illustrator, Photoshop or Wonderdraft. My most recent one is a huge map of Europe I will use as a base for multiple future maps.

How does one submit a map for a contest? Also, when is the next contest taking place?
