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.

Finished the Tawny Man books and am now working on that first Rain Wilds book. You were right, they were great. In fact, they eased my irritation with the assassin books. Finally it was explained WHY fitz kept being such an idiot. Wonderful.
thanks for the rep G
thanks - it went ok, not a top grade I'm guessing, but then again - wasn't expecting that with a more than full time company and 2 kids and art and maps and... *lol*
Grats for being done with your exam, you've been studying for what seems like forever. Hope it went well!
