GET REAL

"I know i just posted their artwork WIP, but i decided that I'm going to redesign Mortaza and Willoh. They were described as 'unrealistic', so i hope to amend this with their new looks." - Me, earlier today.

UPDATE: The redesign is canceled due to unforseen circumstances. It turns out that secretary birds diets include lizards, and we forgot to feed realistic Willoh breakfast. Our realistic, heartfelt apologies go out to realistic Mortaza's loved ones.

(Happy April Fools!)

From the Earth to the middle of the nearside – its closest point and thus, because its mappers are of an Earthly bent, home to its prime meridian – is a distance about 60 times the radius of the Earth.

Twain And The International Date Line

On October 1, 1884, forty-one delegates from 25 nations assembled at the Diplomatic Hall in Washington D.C at the invitation of the US President, Chester Arthur, their mission to establish the Prime Meridian. As it travels around the Sun the Earth rotates on its axis in a counterclockwise direction (from west to east), meaning that different parts of the globe receive the Sun’s direct rays at…

The only map that makes sense is to put the prime meridian in the centre. Then you get to cut the outside edges down the middle of the Pacific and (except for a few small overhanging bits) you're not butchering any countries in ways that make it hard to work out what's going on!

(The UK and Western Europe are then just lucky that, by chance, it happens to be on the opposite side to the huge expanse of water)

I don't know what we'd do for the best if there wasn't such a convenient ocean!

The Brazilian Statistics Institute (IBGE) unveiled the World Map for its new Geographic Atlas, with Brazil in its center, which will serve as reference for the public school system

The equator and the prime meridian are two significant lines of latitude and longitude that intersect the Earth, dividing it into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, and the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, respectively. Countries that lie on the equator experience a tropical climate and have unique flora and fauna. These countries often face challenges such as high temperatures, humidity, and rainfall, but they also boast rich biodiversity and natural resources.

POV: You're looking at a little hater

Selph stands proud at 5 foot 2 inches, something unexpected given Selph's intimidating reputation. This does nothing to stop them from being the biggest hater in the Shadowfell.

A little doodle of Selph made the other day. I've been in a bit of a funk lately, but I think I'm back on track.

(As an aside, I think censoring profane language/gestures makes it funnier.)
