Cartographer's Annual 2017

The Cartographer's Annual 2017

Example map in CC3 Basic City style

July ’17

The July issue revisits the very first drawing style ever created for the Cartographer's Annual: The Mercator Historical style. Based on the works of 16th and 17th century cartographers, the style captures the flair of early exploration and the wonders of Terra Incognita - the Unknown Land.

2017's Mercator Revisited provides a whole new set of artwork, while also updating the style and accompanying mapping guide to take full advantage of CC3+. If you own the Annual Vol 1 with the original style, the old symbols will be incorporated in this new style, doubling the amoung of available symbols.
