Description
I know, shocking how similar they look:[link]
It's entirely color pencil, with a lot of micron pen outlines. No paint, no digital enhancement. Color pencil.
I took this photograph at my grandmother's house, which gets a lot more sunlight than my own. The colors turned out better and I was able to get a lot more detail in the shot--woohoo!
Anyway, now that some of the details can be seen more clearly, let me explain a few things:
The digital and analog clocks are both set at about 2:43am, and the calendar is marked at August 12th: my birthday/time. ('Cause like, I drew this on my birthday. Gettit?)
The pictures on the right, from top to bottom, show:
Muhammed on the mountain, Eve picking an apple, Jesus walking on water, Moses parting the sea, and Noah and his ark.
The safe at the far left? Think Pandora.
The globe on the turtle? I believe there's some native american myth about that somewhere...
The rest? Figure it out.
And I know the perspective is a teensy bit off. x_x
Edit: colors fixed (again)

This is beautiful and remarkable and amazing! I believe the turtle is Chuckwa who like Atlas, carries the world on his back (or shoulders). You did an amazing job and such wonderful detail. I love it!

I like the combination of symbols from religion and science. It reminds me of how everybody makes up their own universe by combining parts of belief systems / knowledge / wisdom and is king inside it.

I don't. I drew it, so I don't really need to.
I guess I intended the king to be some sort of god and everything else just to be his toys or whatever, but honestly I wasn't thinking so much about interpretation when I drew it. Everyone else comes up with a much better story behind it than I ever have.

You are an insane artist. I can't believe the amount of detail you put into this. Starting with general things...I love the composition and the coloration. It's crazy how much attention to even smallest details you put. Like the Bang poster curling up and...well, I can go on forever. You get
