[PnP] Big map

[Burton Choinski]

color correction will be a bitch. It's bad enough getting the scanned pages to line up, besides having roads or rivers not matching.

That is make all the water be the same shade of blue, the lands the same shade, etc.  I have two great resources at my disposal.  My son-in-law is a graphic artist so he could help with the color matching and I work for a company that can print out the entire map.

Some other photoshop to join it all into a canvas, the end result is a 43x35 inch image at 300ppi.  I took this file to my local office depot and had them print and laminate it.  You see it pinned to the wall prior to a game today.   There are a few glitches in the alignment, mostly on the wastern side, and edge hexes are kind of funky in places since roads or rivers don't always light
