Creating my props (part 1)

   Hi guys!! This weekend I worked on creating my props for when I begin filming next week. I decided to look at some films that include a map to get an idea of what they sorta look like. I noticed they all have a old yellowy brown tint to them, so I went to a craft store close by and went to look for watercolors that look like that same color most maps have in films. Unfortunately they did not have what I was looking for, BUT... I found a marker that was just the color I was looking for!! I then went home and searched online black and white maps in images that look not cartoon like because I want this to look very realistic. After a long, long, LONG time I finally found one that was not super cartoon and pirate like. I then printed it and colored it all in. I then crumbled it so that way it looked distressed so it looked even more normal and realistic.

Here is the end result!!


Its gonna be rolled up and tied with a beige ribbon when I place it in the jar I am working on making.
