First draft 1914 map file

@Vital-Signs

I’m going to make a short video for you on how to do it. Its something I thought I would be able to do but I realize I just can’t anymore with the baby around.

But I will make and post a short video this weekend and link it here. It’s far simpler to do than I think most folks realize and so I can do that. Its not that its a complex process. Its more that its kind of a grind.

I’ll post the link here in a couple days. Sorry my dude - but I promise everything I’m about to show you is very simple and can be done.

The pre-digital printing technique that was originally used in comic books (among other applications) is called halftone printing, or halftoning; raster imaging is its digital equivalent. Roy Lichtenstein once painted a giant comic strip panel titled Whaam!, and I think Andy Warhol was also fond of producing oversized images in which the halftone dotting effect was magnified.

@CWO-Marc said in Physically modifying 1942 2nd edition map.:

My pleasure. By the way, I wrote “acrylic” above but I’ve double-checked and the correct term is actually acetate sheets, a.k.a. projector transparencies; see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparency_(projection).

Thanks for letting me know. They’d probably give me a weird look if I asked for acrylic. 😆😆

@Panther ah! daylight at last! thanks!!!

@jeffcamis:

I determined the biggest size that would fit on my dining room table would be 28 inches by 51 inches.  Can I go to a print shop have them down a map and print it in that size?

You definitely can print the map I shared with the community (look at 2Huskies link) at this size.

@Leatherneckinlv

I have essentially already done that

@Private:

It’s the same map Ryuzaki - in terms of territories, szs, etc. Only the artwork is different.

I’m aware, sorry for a lack of clarity, but I need the artwork too.

@LHoffman:

Personally, I like the idea of having that area all around the board for all players to use. The good thing about not having made a table yet is that you can steal the best ideas from everyone else and incorporate them into your own.

Yes, that’s the nice thing about having a discussion forum where people share the result of their customization projects: it not only motivates people to try projects of their own, it also provides lots of ideas on which to drawn (sometimes including hard-won knowledge derived from failed experiments).

I have some pictures of my table in this thread:
