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.

No, the inbox is still full. Remember, you have 2 boxes: Yeah, go for what you think it should be like. The center should be empty of human life unless they live in the valleys or something like in Nepal/Tibet/Bhutan. We could also discuss this in the thread. Ok, I'm good with that. I'll make my thread tomorrow. Unless there is something else?
I will reply to your message here since your inbox is full: No problem. The place does not have any history or names yet. The only thing you need to know is that the mountains are really high and really cold, like the Himalaya. The bottom left is supposed to be a steppe but with some vegetation, probably pine trees. Ok, your idea is a good one. Just that I'm not sure I can give a sense of dept to the cliff. I'll try but I can't guaranty anything. Do you have any other information to give me for the contest?
