Okay, so today I decided to mess around with a project I’m calling “Scotland France”. The whole idea started when I was thinking about maps and flags, you know, just random stuff.
First, I grabbed a map of Scotland. I just did a quick search and found a decent one that showed the regions pretty clearly. Nothing fancy, just something to work with.
Then, I did the same thing for France. I needed a map that was kind of similar in style, so it wouldn’t look too weird when I put them together.
My Simple Process
- Find the Maps: Seriously, just looked them up, saved the images. Easy peasy.
- Open them in my image editor: you know basic software, I just use what came with the computer.
- Resize the images and get the sizing right for each.
- overlay the images with the correct positioning.
- Save my new image.
Then, I played around with the opacity a bit. I wanted to see if I could make it look like the Scottish flag colors were kind of showing through the map of France, or the other way around. It took a little bit of fiddling, but it actually started to look pretty cool!
The final product? Well, it’s definitely… something. It’s like a weird mashup of the two countries. I might try to refine it later, maybe try different blending modes, or even try it with different countries. It’s all just for fun, anyway!
