    Default Custom playmat based on original WoW artwork ones

    Greetings,

    I have posted my first work in other post, so I think it's better it should be placed on a new post.



    I have printed a modified version of this playmat at pvc and it was great!



    Here you have some photos from the final result:

















    I hope you find this interesting.

    Again Jose, what a great job! The mat looks really nice. And one thing that i find interesting is that balloons, for example, are already included in the mat, so you dont have the trouble to out the card. Well this have the good and the bad points, but about the mat.... Marvelous!
    Thanks

    Nice job! It's a very unique look and very well executed. I'm curious: how did you create the artwork? It's very original!

    Perhaps I missed it, but what was the mat printed on? Paper or other medium?

    Thank you for your comment. I'm not interested in sel them... further to it I couldn't. I have used original Wings of War scanned components so I could have legal problems. On the other hand I can accept donations... whether anybody have any spare WWI or WWII plane I'm very pleased with it!

    What a wonderfull place California!

    As I love the original WoW WWI artwork, I didn't like to made a satellite image based playmat, so I have made it with the following components:
    - Original WoW playmats at 800x600 resolution. I had to increase that resolution.
    - A lot of WoW manoeuvre cards scanned and join together.
    - A lot of hours working with Adobe Photoshop.

    I have printed it at www.pixartprinting.com (at their spanish web .es). I have used PVC option and a 130x90 playmat costs about 15 euros - about 20 $ I suppose.

    Thank you all for your words!
