Had this idea as soon as I saw the challenge. I'm everyone in the picture(in my hospital gown as God!..it's actually two sheets) and all the cherubs. Most people make themselves look thinner in PS..I packed on the pounds using liquify and warp. The "Peace Cherub" has a cigar in his mouth, but it's kind of tough to see...
The earth is drawn flat then made a sphere using the 3D tool. The explosion was also drawn in PS by first creating the outline of a mushroom with the path tool then filling it over and over with Render > clouds. Then some liquify..then color changed with levels. I spent way too much time on those two elements...litarally days! This was a lot of fun to do though, and I learned a ton of stuff..

Very funny Tom! I also noticed the choice of locations to detonate the bomb. Something against Mita? You got a triple fish hook score. Congrats on TT.

I'm late to the party, but this is one hell of a job, and you are a great model (but next time do not blow the bomb so close to my neighborhood).

You actually made me laugh out loud and keep laughing as I looked at each pose .. and there is truth behind the humor as well - nice job combining both.

Is God talking to Earth or to all the little angels pulling toilet paper out of his hospital gown? I'm making light of the subject matter...I just find the angels very entertaining and wishing there were more of them.

And they're doing it right up there?! Not exploding, I'll give them that.

Ha, I like this little missile smoke path.
The naked dudes really make this a WTH photo.

Why is God in surgical scrubs...? Too funny. And why is the earth lit with two suns? Fabulous explosiom, and I really dig the peace sign
