Any chance of update pictures, so we can see it go from a blank piece of paper to a magical Marauders Map? I love seeing things in the before and after stages (too many episodes of Changing Rooms!!)  Ok, I just took some pics. It's not just a piece of paper  I've been doing loads of stuff...practising writing in the same style, mixing inks to get the right colour etc... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v185/luluhime/mappic1.jpgHere is a pic of a few of the bits I've worked on so far. At the top left is my practise run using a dark brown ink and a calligraphy pen ( http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v185/luluhime/mappic3.jpg - close up). Next to it is a test making the paper look like parchment (just coffee and tea dabbed over it). Then in the lower left is, what will be, the final front of the map. To the right of that is a large, pale, print out I did of one of the screen caps I took so I could draw over it and get measurments and scale correct. Lastly, at the bottom is my mini map just to show folds ( http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v185/luluhime/mappic2.jpg - close up)  It's taking longer than I thought it would >.<

I was just thinking of the one Luluhime was making at the moment. But wouldn't it be cool at some stage to do that, just to see if any can join together. I know some of it is hidden under the cardboard but you never know  Oh boy, don't even go there...seriously, I tried and didn't get very far, LOL!  I did however take a total of 215 screen caps of the credits at the end of POA. The credits themselves make their way around the marauders map. I thought that maybe, if I pieced all the screen caps together, I might be able to get a good idea of what it looks like. Well, I pieced together only a few and then gave up. Something tells me it won't turn out the way I was expecting http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v185/luluhime/maraudersmapcredits.jpg

I just set it up and use it for partys and stuff. Not to mention everyone likes it when you've finished because you thought of it first

Oh I think the credits are pretty cool actually  Yeah, I liked how they came out, but considering that's only about 75 or so screen caps out of 215, I don't think I'll be doing the rest of it anytime soon (unless I get that bored) lol!

That's entirely up to you  Double sided tape will be less messy though

I wish I could help both of you more.
At home, I have a Marauder's Map Magic Changing Towl that has the entire front side of the map, and I also have digital pictures of one of the maps used for the movie (it's all folded out) in a glass case.
I don't know how that would help, though. It seems you have all the "front" pictures. And if memory serves me correctly, the digital pictures are much like the screen cap you have in Lupin's office!
