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.

I'm excited to say I've launched my first adventure module which is around my map called the Isles of Sarlona.

It is available exclusively on Patreon, but here is a teaser to hopefully get you interested. https://www.cartographersguild.com/a...hmentid=116272 https://www.patreon.com/Adventurepages ...

Greetings all, I've been following some of the posts about building world climates, but haven't been able to post due to technical difficulties. Over the past few months, I'd been contemplating the world to set my writing in. I'd done most of the local cosmology - no science content here - down to what the average planet weather would look like. But I really wanted to know what the regional differences would be. Finally, I sat down with pen and paper ...

Currently working on three very different maps for three different authors. I also recently found the map I started for my own books, but it is so sad and unloved, haha! I barely sketched out the coastline and threw some names on there. I should really start actually working on that one. I need to hurry up and finish these maps first.
