A big thanks to EnderWorkbench for my first Cinematic. Hope you guys enjoy!




It's late. I'm tired. I'm sorry it's been so long for an upload. I haven't built that much recently, and the few things I make are of poor quality that's not worth sharing. Except this one. I've been building this map on and off for about 3 months. I want to share this with you guys, and I hope you enjoy it.



I built Calvin's Refuge as a spinoff of Sawyer's Refuge, a map I made using WorldPainter. This map was a labor of love. A lot of fixing, tweaking, revising, embellishing, simplifying, was involved. This is my final product. Sorry I don't have any shaders on to embellish the cover photos, but my computer can't handle that right now. I may update this in the future, but probably not. I don't like going back on previous projects. Now then, let's talk about the map a little bit.




Calvin's Refuge - Lore

This is Calvin Hastara's farmstead. It was handed down to him by his father, Sawyer Hastara, who founded Sawyer's Island. Since his father's death, Calvin has been quietly farming the fertile soil and selling his produce thoughout the Golden Isle.

Calvin is the only one on the island. Or so he thinks. Myths float throughout the Golden Isle that supernatural beasts wander the forests. Calvin is not one for superstitions, and isnt bothered by these rumors... Much to his demise.

The beast is mysterious. It can never be seen in broad daylight, and Islanders joke that it will only reveal itself seconds before your death, where the beast thoroughly enjoys tearing your limbs off until your demise.

The beast preys on the weak. It has the ability of dream projection, and greatly enjoys tormenting its victims through nightmares and visions before it kills its prey. The beast also leaves mysterious messages, further tormenting them.

Not only is the beast able to project dreams, it can shapeshift. The beast often takes the shape of humans to easily follow its prey until it is ready to strike.

Of course, this is all myth...



Calvin's Diary - may he rest in peace among those who came before him...

Diary Entry #1 - Midnight
I am not one for diaries, but I have found it necessary to document the... unexplainable events around the Farmstead. The following entries will be a recording of everything that I have been seeing and feeling as of late...
Diary Entry #2 - Morning
Ever since the night after the planting season had ended, I began to have the same peculiar dream every night. It always began as if I were above my body, floating without direction nor judgment. My spirit continued to float on, carrying itself through gray mist and matter until I found myself on the back doorstep, where I seemed to remain for hours at a time, until my dark vision shifted - to the pillar... And that's when I wake up. I feel beads of sweat running down my body, and my heart racing... but my mind felt no kind of panic of any sort. This has been my dream for 28 days straight and counting. I can't bear it much longer.

Diary Entry #6 - Well Past Midnight
I can feel him. He is digging into my very soul. He is saying things I cannot ignore. I can't bring myself to sleep anymore. The dream. The nightmare. It's becoming stronger. Whatever is going on, I feel for the worst...
Diary Entry #7 - Morning
I have decided not to sleep. The dream is too much to bear. My health is failing me. I am beginning to cough up blood. What is happening to me?...
Diary Entry #8 - Sunset
The basement. I can feel it. He's there. He's watching me. This is the end...
End...
*** blood stains *** Calvin is no longer here. May those who find this book know of what happened on this farm, and what may happen to them... - Lucius

Nice man, I like how the interior was done especially. Hard to come across a descent interior these days.

you're definitely right. i think interiors are just as important as exteriors in projects like these. thanks for the compliment!
