Description
This is an illustration for a book entitled "If you could do anything tomorrow- what would it be?". The illustration just had to be about something that you would like to do. The text on my image reads "Create my own religion (and make millions from gullible morons".The symbol isn't anything to do with Quake (I didn't even realise the similarity until a few people mentioned it). It's the greek letter 'psi' which I use as my signature. I've been writing this a lot in replies so thought I'd save myself time by writing it here instead.

Well, you haven't yet created a religion... but you DO have hundreds of fanatics meticulously following and praising your work!
And I'm one of them!

hahahaha isn't kabbalah part of the Jewish religion though?

Thank you! Surprisingly no, I did actually expect some. Hopefully anyone who is into such retarded religions as Kabbalah and Scientology will be able to see the funny side.

the kabbalah isn't a retarded religion such as scientology, that is what celebrities have made it into. The Kabbalah is a branch of Judaism which is actually jewish mysticism as opposed to a cult. It's like branches of buddhism, it's not quite as retarded as you might think.

Oh my god, please don't take offensive by what I've said. I know Kabbalah is an actual religion and I have nothing at all against that, I was referring to the bastardised celebrity version that has come about recently. Sorry for the confusion I mean no offense, I just have a massive problem with these people making money off of naive people.

no no - I wasn't offended, don't worry... I'm also pretty disgusted at the celebrity crap.
I think I commented before, but the picture is brilliant... especially the pose of the orator... fantastic concept as well.

Very cool. I was planning on starting my own religion about worshiping foxes that live in boxes, but it didn't work out because I am the only person I know who likes foxes. Or boxes.

Thanks! Yeah, you might have a bit of trouble recruiting members, I used to love boxes when I was a kid, not too hot about foxes though....

Very cool.
I'm sure you already know this, but the symbol for 'psi' is also the commonly used symbol for Psychology. So in a sense, it fits perfectly with the theme of your illustration.
It also - in a kind of weird way - makes this look like a parody of Scientology 
Really nice work.

Thanks! I did know that, but my original intention was for the symbol to be for my own cult, but the psychology idea is much better.

I was originally planned to be my own religion, the cult of Si, but loads of people have read into the symbol representing Psychology, so a cult of Psychology is a much better idea.

Every aspect of this is amazing. I love the concept, the art itself, and everything in between. Fantastically done! Kuddos!

Funny thing is, I realized it was a "psi" right away, I just wasn't sure. Thoughtful piece.

Absolutely fabulous. I'm grateful this was featured so I wouldn't miss this.
Awesome details and little tidbits like the banners and drink
Great job

I've read through the comments and pretty much everything has been said so this will be redundant but what the hell .
Composition is great - the way the psi dominates the scene and the light in the sky is centered on it . The uniformity of the worshipers dress and the little wafer bottle with the symbol .
I really like this image , but I looked through your gallery and will add that my fav of the work here is 'And the plot thickens' which is so evocative of the scary , scary woods at night .
So many cool visions - this was a great stop !
