This is wonderful ! I dream of a roleplaying game illustrated / layouted like that !

[Jerron]

We are not worthy to be in the same guild as you!

[ThomasR]

This is not even taking mapmaking to the next level, more like next dimension... sublime travail !

[Ilanthar]

I love so much this unique style you recently developped. It's something I can't remember to have already seen in fantasy mapmaking.
Just fantastic work, really.

By Voolf
That's increadible work Bee. You outdone yourself with this one. Probably an atlas award piece

Agree. And considering the subject, it could also be very much in its place on the guild home page ...

[aeshnidae]

WOW! I haven't been able to check out the other entries for a while so am just seeing this now, and I'm blown away (as per usual with your maps!). Words cannot express how much I love that you included an authentication stamp.

[J.Edward]

So good This is just such a wonderful piece of work, Beee.
The illumination is such a pleasure to see.
And you are perfecting the old parchment/vellum look, which goes so well with that lettering.
This is just such a magnum opus.

I think everyone will probably agree, i think we can call this a win.
And I'm gonna go ahead and say it - it probably should be a CC as well, which perhaps Ilanthar was alluding to.
You really represented the spirit of the Guild, Beee. Bravo.

Edit - i agree. The stamp adds a lot, but not as much as Horror Vacui.
I laughed when I saw that. I know that feeling.

An Outstanding Map!

About that Wall Of Text:
It is Great.
It explains everything and ties it together.
I completes the story that the map shows.

I absolutely love this map.

A tiny correction, and a tiny addition, just because ^^

### Winner ###

An insane work for a magnificent result ! You are a unique kind of a mad(p)-(wo)man !!!!

Happy New Year for you and your loved ones !!!

edit : "horror vacui" , c'est pour "horreur du vide" ?
edit 2 : I love Nr 54 !!!

Thanks so much Jo ! Happy Holiday to you and yours as well !!
I think we all struggled with #54 at least once in our map making life ^^
Horror vacui is indeed for the fear of emptiness, which is a well known tendency in visual arts, and maybe especially for historical cartography. I see it as a sort of illness and we're a lot on the Guild affected with it, aren't we ? Anyway, I was looking for a good motto for the Guild and this one sounded... appropriate ^^'

Wow incredible as always. Insanely detailed, right down to the faint bleed through shadow of text from the other side of the page.

Thanks Falconius ! I'm glad you love it ! ^^

It came close, but you did it. My number 1 favourite from the works produced around the Guild this year. I think I'll print this one out and hang it on my wall, if you don't mind
Not only is it a beautiful piece, but such a fantastic representation of the Guild. Bravo, my lady, bravo.

Your #1 favorite !! I feel so honored !! #^_^#
There will be high quality prints available on my InPRNT today or tomorrow probably if you're interested ^^

That's increadible work Bee. You outdone yourself with this one. Probably an atlas award piece

Hehe, you're selling the bear's skin again ! But thanks a lot, Voolf : 'was a pleasure to draw this one ^^

This is wonderful ! I dream of a roleplaying game illustrated / layouted like that !

Thanks Klo' ! I would enjoy a lot working on such a project, actually ! ^^

We are not worthy to be in the same guild as you!

Thank you but... oh, don't say that ! I still have a lot, a very lot to learn !

This is not even taking mapmaking to the next level, more like next dimension... sublime travail !

So glad you love it, Thomas !! ^^

Thanks Ilanthar ! I'm having the biggest pleasure to explore this style and find my way, and am especially proud if it's unique !
#^_^#
'would be an honor, for sure !!

WOW! I haven't been able to check out the other entries for a while so am just seeing this now, and I'm blown away (as per usual with your maps!). Words cannot express how much I love that you included an authentication stamp.

I'm so glad you love it... especially the stamp ! For some reason, I thought about you while designing it ! ^^

Wow, thanks for the very kind words, J. ! As the map is both because of you and thanks to you, it means a lot ^_^
What could I say after that if not... Horror Vacui, dear friend !

Thanks so much Brian !! It's good to tie together the two things I love the most : maps and words ^^

[ChickPea]

This is absolutely wonderful, Beee! I am in awe of your skills (again!)

There are so many good things on this map (I'd be here all day gushing over them), but I have to say I absolutely love the old manuscript vibe and, especially, the lettering at the top. It's just beautiful.

[fol2dol]

Là, on atteint le chef d'œuvre!!!!
Bravo pour cette sublime carte. Que dire, rien. Juste m'extasier devant et rêver.
Merci Beee

There you reach the masterpiece !!!!
Bravo for this sublime map. What can I say, nothing. Just rave about it and dream.
Thanks Beee
