Best regards from germany, a newbie cartographer here!

Hello everyone,

first things first: I'm Adrian, 22 years old and from Leipzig, Germany. I found this forum months ago and it helped me insane in my progress of my first (digital) map.

Mapping was since my first story i wrote a central point and it did so much fun to create my very first map. At this moment i knew, that I want to create more of it.

My newest story takes part in a fictional continent with many unique areas, what brought me to the point again to create the map for it. Till this point, i drew my maps of blank paper with a pencil. But i wanted a digital map created in an image editing program, like GIMP. I searched for informations and ended up here. This forum helped me so damn much and now I decided to become a part of the huge "cartographer-family", even if it's just a footnote in my main activities.

I will put in my current map at this point, it is a WIP. Many things are missing, like Rivers, Citys, Roads and Captations, but it is a good base to work with!

Hope you have a nice day and a beautiful weekend and happy mapping!

Adrian
