MOUNTAIN TOP RUINS
The top of the great sacred mountain rises above a peacefully sleeping settlement. Pilgrims used to be able to use a lift, but recently somebody damaged it and the only way up is a long way through tombs. A foreteller says that a great evil has settled on the top and an ancient portal has been opened.I noticed that many people like to put their own terrain on screens, so as an experiment, I made a version of this map with no objects in the middle. I also kept areas of light where you can put you...

BLOODY HELL and LAVA LAND!
I woke up with a bitter taste of ash in my mouth. I could hardly open my eyes and immediately squint from a bright, thick river of magma, that cut through a building of unfamiliar metal like a knife. Something touched my leg, which instantly brought me to my senses. A body was sticking out of a giant, rotting pile of flesh, reaching out to me and moaning horribly.What is this? Where am I? Am I crazy or is this really hell?Here you can download both versions of this map (.mp4, .webm and .jpeg):ht...

How I made my rock TV frame
So I received some questions about my TV case, which isn't really a full case, but a removable frame made of styrofoam, toothpicks and toilet paper.
