This is from last year.
I’d glued some maps to magnetic sheets and took them home. My gf immediately told me: you know our niece will want to color them, right?
And, of course, she did.
Yeah, shading would have helped.
I once read (or maybe watched a video?) saying that most cartographers shade as id the sun were in the upper left of the image. Of course, it’s an artist choice, so many more decide against it. :)
But even if you’re not an astronomy enthusiast, you can open up Google Maps and check out the satellite photo layer. Every now and then, you’ll come across a terrain feature that you can’t easily tell if it’s raised or depressed.
I tried (and failed) to write a decent pun for a title.
Mostly because I was worried my well wouldn't look like a well. Same for the staircase, actually.

Same thought process on my part. A little bit of laziness might have played a part as well. 😅
Ah, I hadn't thought they could be rival cities.
Maybe even belonging to different kingdoms?
Heh. Yeah... they're very old, and I've reused them many many times.
Yeah. I noticed after the fact. Oh, well.
Ah.. I totally forgot that this had already been posted in this community:
Out of the loop here. What are the recent scandals with Discord?
