Gentlemen,
I have a question concerning reproducing period topo maps. I'm doing an Engineer impression for Monacacy and have a couple questions. First question is. How did they make colored maps? I've seen a bunch. It looked to me that it wasn't ink that they used because there were no ink splotches etc. I was leaning towards colored pencils? How far off base am I?
Second question. What would be a good paper to use to replicate these maps? The bigger the better. i've never handled a period map, only seen pictures. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
