Well I don't know if it is motivation or confusion ( or just about time I got to it...) but I usually use a mix of mods; and Jison gave me permission to use his material as I see fit... it will need some work to apply to some of the other titles (some titles have 2 different hex file sets -so I need to edit the colours for the larger ones).
This sort of is along the lines of what you are talking about. A map using the above mod (as well as the initial deployments for the historical Quatre Bras - Ligny scenario from Campaign Waterloo.).
When I do get to these in earnest, I will have to do the initial run through using the stock graphics, and then maybe later on will do some using some mods.
The Gallery software resizes the thumb so it is a lot grainier than the full sized version. (link below to full sized which is something like 4000 x 3000 px ).
