Fine-tip colored pencils are essential for the numerous small details, text, and intricate banner work. Gel pens can add precise, crisp lines for outlining or highlighting specific property boundaries. Watercolors or alcohol markers can be used for larger, less detailed areas like the main land parcels for smooth coverage.
Begin by outlining major sections like the large winding feature or the main grid lines to establish boundaries. Use light, even pressure for larger land parcels. Focus on one small section at a time to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Practice careful shading on the decorative banner.
Experiment with historical map conventions, using varying saturations to denote different types of land or features. Apply fine point pens for the small text and intricate details. Use cross-hatching or stippling on specific areas to add texture, such as the hatched 'BOGUE' section. Consider subtle gradient blends for the main winding path to give it depth.
