    Map Hello, I'm Tomi and I'm addicted to mapmaking...

    Hello! My name is Tomi, and I'm new to the mapmaking world. I've always loved maps and globes, and a few weeks ago I had the random thought that a D&D-kind of map would make a great background for some pin packaging I was designing for our shop. I started looking up tutorials and techniques for drawing maps, and I was instantly hooked! I've been drawing maps in all my spare moments and finding all the mapmakers I can online and gaining so much inspiration. I heard about Cartographers Guild from (stalking) Mistybeee on Instagram, and I thought the challenges and feedback here sounded wonderful! I'm still trying to figure out all the posting etiquette, so please forgive me if I miss something, but I thought I'd share the map I finished the other day. There are some inconsistencies as I'm trying to figure out my style, but I enjoyed drawing this so much! (Drawn on iPad Pro with Apple Pencil in Procreate)
