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.

Hey Abu, I wasn't able to rep you again for your banners, so wanted to leave a comment to say that I think they were fab and a great entry for the challenge. Good luck in the voting! I'm still working on my Skye map (been really busy and bit under the weather the last week). I have to sort out my Clan crests then I'll update again.
It's a pleasure ChickPea, at least something i can give back for the huge amounts of help i recieved here (and especially in this case)! I hope it'll be useful to you. Btw. any news from the "Isle of Skye"? By chance i watched the animated Disney/Pixar movie "Brave" yesterday, and had to think about this great map of yours...
Thanks for the rep and for voting for my map. Glad you liked it.
... and thank you for the rep!
Thanks, Abu! I'm a little stunned that I won. When voting started I honestly thought you nail this one, as yours was my favourite out of all of them. I hope we can go 'head to head' again, because it was great fun!
Congratulations Chick Pea! Well deserved shiny silver . I'm looking forward to the next "competition" with you...
Hey ChickPea, thanks for the rep and vote! Indeed it was (or still is) a really fun lite-challenge...If all competitions were like this one i'd like competing more i guess
