I Create Large Earth Globes From Gypsum And Natural Pigments (16 Pics)

ADVERTISEMENT

My fascination for globes started when I was a kid. I always wanted a giant globe just like the ones in museums and the movies, and a few years ago, I decided to make one.

Talking about globes, I also have a cat shelter with over 200 cats, and we have been previously featured on Bored Panda! You can find the post by clicking here

One single purchase could cover the costs for all of our cats in months to come, so we wouldn’t need to rely so heavily on donations. If anyone is interested in a personalized large world globe, get in touch and I’ll make you an art piece that no one else in the world has!

After dozens of failed attempts and almost 2 years later, I finally made an 80 cm (31.5″) globe that shows incredible detail and looks even better than I hoped for!

The colors look real because of the natural pigments used and the incredible detail is given by the satellite imagery data map that was made with software developed from scratch

Depending on the room lighting, the globe colors change and it always gets WOW reactions from everyone, especially from children!

Now I’m working on a globe with a magnetic surface so that you can put flags or pins on it, or even trace out a route for a future trip!

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).

Stunning! Very detailed and carefully made. I really like it! (Also the cats are a nice touch. Do they come included or no? :P)
