If you have already made map_c and map_T then it is very easy, if you know the basics of photoshop or similar software to create map_F and ed_* series images, using map_c and mao_T as the source for selecting, copying and pasting various elements. Getting map_c right first I think is the key, then you can use this as a master template for all the other images. When you reduce it you must avoid re-sampling of pixels otherwise you will end up with odd "artifacts".
I keep an original game version available in another window and use it to sample the colours, in order to keep the IL-2 look.
