I would almost want this on a fleece blanket lol
The reason I did it was because the group wanted a world map poster of my homebrew setting to put up on the wall, but I am not a skilled enough artist to make it look nice enough. Professional, pre made maps ARE withing my skillset to make a massive poster from.
That’s pretty awesome, what was the process like?
I printed the map using a poster/plotter printer in two sections that I split up in photo shop, scaling the map size and resolution to fit a 1in player grid (the grid marks are there, but faint).
I then taped 12 2ft×2.5ft foamcore boards together and glued down the map, using gluesticks for the majority and hot glue to keep the edges down. I taped it so that it is a trifold, condensing down to a single 7ft×21in panel for storage and transport.
Someone else here in the comments suggested cottons balls for fog of war, so I am gonna get those and some poster tack to keep it all vertical. I am gonna track their progress by making player tokens and using poster tack to keep them on the board.
You’re doing way more for your players than I have time to do. Looks awesome!
Real MVP play is telling us all how it was done
Very impressive! How would you handle Fog of War?
I was wondering this too. My first thought was cotton balls.
I had been struggling with figuring that out, but cotton balls with a bit of poster tack to keep them attached will be perfect! Thanks for the idea. I was going to do black cardstock with each room cut out, but your suggestion is 1,000,000× easier
Wow! What is it made out of? Plastic?
Impressive, so do you actually use it, and if so, how ? That won’t fit on a standard table 😀
That’s amazing! What is it fastened to? Wood? Cardboard? Poster board? Something else?
Well done friend.
Poster board! It is foldable too, condenses to a single 7ft×21in panel for storage/transportation
That looks awesome.
Oh, man! Looks awesome! Is it digital and is there a link where we could buy / download it?
It can be downloaded from drivethruRPG here: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product_reviews_info.php?&reviews_id=446386&products_id=299103
I got the maps for free because my dad backed the project in development and it came with the digital maps, but he had no use for them.
**edit for transparency: I didn’t draw the map, just to make that clear, I just made the poster to 1in grid scale
