Dominik M. Schwarz has always been fascinated with maps. He's also traveled a lot, and he wanted a big world map -the size of an entire wall, with detailed information and place names. Like many of us, he wanted to stick pins in the places he'd been. He couldn’t find the map he wanted for sale, so he made his own!
That doesn’t mean the process was easy. There’s the data collection, the image stitching, testing it on the wall, finding a printer for such a large one-off project, mounting the map, attaching it to the wall, and finding the perfect pins. Every step was more complicated than you’d think, and there were many ideas discarded along the way. Schwarz spent a year and a half on the project, and posted each step with pictures. He’s quite happy with the results. -via Metafilter

It's likely not Shin-chan's butt though. His face is one of the other molds and even though he's 5 years old, he uses highly inappropriate language and often reacts to older/adult women in an inappropriate fashion. Shin-chan is one of those shows that seems like it could be a kid's show, but totally isn't. So, they wouldn't even attempt to hide the fact that this is a lady's backside that Shin-chan is reacting to.
