First, sorry, my english is horrible.[:(]

Thank you for your observations. I try again.

In fact I invented the bridges. Maybe I did overstepped.[8|]

I used a mixture of three maps. One is a photomontage of two Osprey maps. The others are a two modern maps of Google Maps. The three maps do not match exactly, but close enough to give enough accuracy

Although the tracks and the vegetation are not of 1944, I tried to respect the main roads and villages of 1944.
I decided that almost nothing was clear ground, to represent typical fields of Normandy. I painted all with heide, orchard and wood. I don't know if that it's ok.[&:]

For Italy maps, I don't know. I suppose the modern maps can be used to create good topography maps and the position of some towns, but not for infrastructures and urban areas.

Thanks again.[;)]

Hi all
I am working to improve the Omaha beach map[8|]

While I made a Eivissa island map to practise Map Maker.
Not is a 1940s realistic map, but is a beatiful island to make funny invasion fictional scenarios[:D].
I'm testing with reinforced and adapted forces of Malta scenario. When I finish it, I'll upload it.

Looks like you've got the mapmaker utility figured out.

Very nifty!
