the bottom 4 of Lack, Andy, Wicked, DiM could be changed to Wham, rds, KA and not sure how thenobodies80 would be abbreviated.

alternatively we could put the names of the different owners in there with Lack, el Jefe, bigWham and in a few months we'll have the fourth. :D

This was the revamp i was starting before, new colours, more earthy etc. This is done in Illustrator and much clearer than using FWs.

If we go for the revamp, my plan would be to:
1. reproduce the plan taking this forward to the stage where everyone was happy with it
2. throw the image into Sketchup, and try producing some 3D walls and furniture etc on high vertical vanishing point
3. export this .png image to Illustrator again and finish with the army circles and text.
4. For the map region text, it might even be possible to explore the text in 3D also, although i have yet to determine how this might be acheived in Illustrator.

i am reasonably confident that something can be accomplished for "2." from this image

i was tempted to suggest blake however went with tnb80 as the equivalent to DiM - either would be a worthy addition.

If you go the 3D route, degaston had a great programme when he tried his murder 1 map. I believe the programmes name is in the thread but it might be quicker to just ask him.
