With this theme I only had one thing in mind. As a teenager I saw the miniseries "around The World In 80 Days", the version from 1989 with a young Pierce Brosnan. Oh my lord I drooled like a waterfall over him. If you have not seen that, you should, It's a masterpiece filled with excitement and it's even better than the original book in my opinion (Yes, I have read it in my drooling days :P).
I had many thoughts about this design (like including the machines they where transported in) but it ended up with a simple map with colors inspired by the map of the intro.
I have followed their route from England to France, from France to Italy, from Italy to India, then i hopped directly to japan and USA was so big so it could only fit my thump.
I have dotted the cities they reach but I've just remembered that on their way home they reach Liverpool, and that I forgot to dot sadly.Here is the design:
Procedure and polishes I've used:
Essie "Parka Perfect" - as base color
Etude House "Chocolate" - as base for the land
Essie "Eternal Optimist" - I used a tiny bit to make the Etude House color seem a little more pretty and structured. And the same I did with OPI "My Very First Knockwurst".
OPI "Wooden Shoe Like To Know" - I used as lining up the countries
Essie "Sweet Talker" - I dapped on over Essie "Parka Perfect" to make the sea a little more alive, it was too grey before this but I didn't wanted a bright blue ocean.
Essie "Raspberry" - was used for the dotting of the cities
and here is more photos:
I hope you enjoyed even if you don't know the story I am referring to. :)
