    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 ^^'

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

    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 ^^

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

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

    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.
    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 !

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