    Post Is real-world cartography allowed?

    Hi guys,

    I'm a new kid on the block. I have been interested in geography and history my entire life.
    I have turned to cartography in order to work on both of my passions at the same time.
    I hope you won't mind a few posts with some real-world maps

    Hi, and welcome to the Guild.

    Of course you can post real world cartography. We're all about maps here, and it doesn't matter if they're fictional or real world. Just keep 'em coming!

    Looking forward to seeing some of your work.

    I'll echo that too - yes we absolutely like real world cartography and welcome comments and suggestions about best practices, tips and software for making real world cartography. I think it would do us all a lot of good to make a few more real world maps where we lack the excuse of magic, fantasy and other reasons to fudge real earth mapping issues.

    Thanks for the welcome guys!

    I'm planning on possibly setting up a blog once I get verified to stay motivated and keep track of my work progress.

    Of course I appreciated these fantasy maps on this site very much,
    but I prefer playing RTS game with real world map,
    changing names for example .
