Dean Adelaide of Cthulhu Reborn is no stranger to these pages. Over the years he has become one of the go-to resources for all kinds of prop documents and handouts for Mythos gaming. He's distilled some of that experience into an excellent post providing detailed, step by step instructions for creating your own vintage prop documents.
"Over time I have developed quite a selection of techniques for using digital tools — designed to make crisp and precise artworks — to make things that are not at all crisp or precise. I thought that folks might be interested in seeing how different techniques can come together to make something like the example above look old … so here’s a quick run-through of how I approach creating designs like this.
Although the techniques I mention below make particular reference to features in Adobe Illustrator (my tool of choice), I’m sure that most if not all of them are also available in other drawing packages. BTW: for all images shown on this page, you can click to see larger versions."
