I tried a couple of different approaches (using different types of map as a base) and would say both were pretty effective so it's up to you which you prefer - I used the same technique for both anyway - but I settled on the satellite images in the end as I liked the pop of colour on the wall! I wanted them to be something a little different and I'm a smidge into 3D printing at the moment so I set myself the challenge of trying to create something that looked good but had that third dimension to it which is how I settled on these 3D printed maps! I wanted to make something I could have on display to remind me of where I've been and come from and that I could add to in future so settled on small prints of each town I'd called home. I moved around a lot as I was growing up and while that definitely had it's downsides, the places I lived all left their little impact on me so I thought it'd be nice to set myself a little project to remember them all. I know it looks and probably sounds a little complicated but it takes, at most, about 15 minutes to do! (not counting print time of course!)
