Following on from the commission I worked on for the Urantia Foundation back in 2002, the image is a much more detailed overview that combines all the info shown in those four images into a map of the “Master Universe”.
Effectively this maps illustrates how the Urantia Book describes the organisation of the entire creation in top and side profile, with some other info about worlds.
This piece took quite a long time to complete, not to mention the extended period of time where I intended to work on it, but was a little unsure of the correct distances and geographical positions of things. I relied heavily with the online resources to get these numbers and details right, so thank you to everybody who contributes to these!
The image itself is enormous:
FInal dimensions 21000 pixels wide (shown here at 8,4%!)
All text is vector so it can be translated or amended
It is intended to be printed potentially *very large* and to visualise some of the more complex concepts in the book.
I think the image took about 200 hours of organising, painting and research – using about 4GB of memory while I painted and the saved files are 400MB in size.
I am not sure what is going to be done about prints of this piece – so many people contact me about the original 4 (which have still to be released by the UF as prints) – I may organise some limited edition canvas runs of this piece in the near future.
Book info is here for those interested:

That's easy. Just get the 1900x1200 and click "stretch to fit" and it would look exactly the same as one that came that size. Assuming the ratio is correct in the first place - and if it's 1900x1200 then it has to be.

Well, the 1900X1200 "wallpaper" isn't there, and the ratio's aren't the same. I could crop. But as the artist, he'd have a better vision on whats best.

I know, and the ratios are virtually the same... I just say 1900x1200 for ease of memory when the real number isn't exactly that. It is of course up to the artist.

Virtually the same? You need to make some wallpapers and use multiple monitors to realise the difference

Alright, let me rephrase that. When windows stretches a bigger image to a lower size screen, it's virtually the same as one cropped for that resolution. At least, all all my and the people I know's esperiences it is.
