The ShadedReliefArchive<\/a> provides an eyewatering array of hand-painted hillshade plates from cartography’s yesteryear, all in the public domain…just waiting to be scooped up by mappers.

In the meantime, here’s a quick behind-the-scenes look at how this basemap was made…<\/p>\n

With helpful geographic data sourced from Natural Earth<\/a>, oceans were given a papery texture, coasts and graticules got a sketchy pencil stroke, and lakes and rivers were given watercolor fills.
