The Secret to Realistic Fantasy Worldbuilding? Use a Globe

I started the world building project last week, and I'm finishing this week: using paper gores is a time-consuming process, it's true, but if you give it the time that it takes, you can make an amazing world. In this video, I'll be talking about WHY you should make a fantasy world globe, how it can help you, and what you can use it for.
