I'm looking for some honest opinions on this, and I can think of no more appropriate group of folks. On March 12th the Latin Honor Society (i.e. me, mostly) and Chef Clarke, our culinary teacher, are sponsoring a Lord of the Rings, Extended Edition, movie marathon. It will have Tolkien inspired meals along the way, with a raffle at the end for a 36" X 32" replica map of Middle Earth.
I got a 10 meg pdf of the map, from the RPF, whose original poster was none other than Adam Savage from Mythbusters (I know some of you are familiar with this same file). I had the map printed at Kinkos yesterday, and have been working on aging it. My normal methods are out the window due to it's size, so I'm wondering what you guys think. Too light, too dark, not worn enough...opinions are most welcome. I've put the weathered map next to another un-altered one for comparison.
Three more pictures to follow in next message.
Cheers,
Guy
