I started an antique-ish version... with "hand coloring" using the tablet.
AslanC, I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with
Awesome sauce!
I might try two styles. My hex map and maybe a pseudo antique one too

More progress with the coloring.
May have to clean up stuff, or start over with a new map, using better (and more consistent) pencils.
Hand drawn has advantages and disadvantages, it seems. Hard to neaten a symbol and still have it look like it's hand drawn.
Hey, I think it's looking pretty good, at this point.
I think, therefore I am a nerd.

Pimping my worldmap here. Still WIP... long way to go, but I'm pretty proud of what I've done so far...
Yeah well, the mountains are a bit on the smudgy side to my tastes, and because I had my pencil snatched away at some point (pesky kids and their dog!), I had to switch to a different pencil which was either shaper or not so sharp.
I do like it in lower resolution, but in 100% I don't think it's very pretty. Ah well.
The fuzzy lines on the mountain don't look so bad to me, mainly because it looks handdrawn.
As a possible solution, if you've got your original, you could trace over it in ink and rescan it (or, alternately, trace over it in GIMP on a new layer with the ink tool, though that would probably require a pen/tablet setup to be most effective).
