"End of Days" - ATC

© All Rights Reserved
This week’s Theme Thursday challenge was “Numbers.” I wanted to complete this before the "world ending" deadline, which was supposed to happen yesterday at 6pm Eastern Time, but this took me longer than I expected. I haven't yet heard what explanation those who predicted the "End of Days" gave for the Global Earthquake failing to happen. But their hubris influenced the quotes I used.

I created this piece by getting a world map outline, coloring it, and making it into a sphere in GIMP. I then blew it up based on an exploding planet tutorial I found. (Don't ask how long it took me to get the end result you see here. I almost gave up on this twice, and spent too much time on it.)

The quotes are from the Bible. The fonts are Firenze SF Bold and Calligraph421 BT. The world map outline is from outline world map images.
