This is the background piece for the Zodiac post below. It's my recreation (minus some detail) of the Phillips 66 map Zodiac sent to the press. I have some textures to add and a little text detail, both hand written and stylized font.
I though it was going to take me forever to recreate the map to this point, but it really didn't take too long. Light tables are a wonderful thing when wanting to recreate a real element in a comic style.
Trying to mix elements like the actual map with an illustrative comic style just never look good. It's the same with trying to mix illustrative styles and actual photographs. They just tend to clash when you try and go that route.
That's why the only choice was to take a little time and draw out a facsimile of the road map. It'll just look better in the end.
