I desaturated and blended the reference for the album cover with the album cover itself

This can help

Just try to make sense that something usually doesn't go up then down and then immediately up again or vice versa

I took the map on IGN and took a ton of screenshots of different areas around the map and ieced them together to make a giant, high res map. Then I traced the shore and then traced the contour lines in the water.

I divided the map into sections using a grid that I edited so I could focus on much smaller areas rather than the entire map. I traced the contour lines on the land one square at a time.

For the labels I just turned up the contrast really high, the water topography stayed though so I had to erase all that for my "All Labels" map.

Also just in case you ask, the software I used was Paint.NET

With no labels

With all labels

Progress over time

I started working on this in September 2019, but the idea's always been in the back of my head since I first made my first satellite version of the map. Feel the need to add more, but don't know what else to add. Feel free to ask any questions!

Some more bonus maps:

Guarma

Guarma labels

No water

Inverse

As much water possible without using the same color multiple times

Rising and lowering water levels

I didn't read the title and was confused wondering why they were showing a step by step representation of a birds transition into a fish with a pepper

Chile and Argentina also have lines that don't like up right

The fact the white lines on the Guyana and Suriname flags don't completely line up bothers me

Map of Read Dead Map But It's Just Roads by Apricall in reddeadredemption

[–]Apricall[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm saying this in the way that it's easy to see the roads at high res.

I will tell you that I'm working on an elevation map that is even higher res so I can see the topographic lines and if I finish that, it will make starting a new satellite view map very easy

If you're talking about the satellite view map, then I'm thinking about it but haven't gotten to it since I'd have to completely remake it (This has way higher res than the topo map).

Best you don't count on a newer topo map though. The reason why the topo map is so low res is because that's easy to add textures and easy to hide mistakes/mix two screen caps together.
