[HoTW] Catarina's Asylum



"... death is the only art form that this land understands, and so we must tend to our materials Exile. Gather our fleshly clay and devote ourselves, soul and sinew, to our art. For the darkness is coming, the living shall give way to the undying; yet we shall stand our ground. And with instruments, delicate and keen, build a monument - a symbol for our devotion to the corruption, to the nightmare." - Catarina, Master of the Dead

The hideout should represent a small part of a large forgotten chamber that Catarina have claimed as her own domain. I wanted to portrait a really sadistic nightmarish environment, reflecting Catarinas distorted idea of inhumane treatments of psychological ill patients - yes, this is indeed supposed to portrait her own “mental health institution”. An institution for the ones whom is deeply possessed and overwhelmed by the uprising nightmares - and her promise salvation to them. A salvation that goes beyond the surface of the living.

Hope you like it!

*Update: I've just reached 750 props so I guess I finally call it completed.
*Update#2: Thank you for showcasing my work Bex <3

Nice hideout!

Love how you themed the rooms, nice attention to detail.
Also like how you didn't reveal how it was made. ;)

Thank you! I were apparently about five props away from the limit so I guess there's an end to the detailing. However, I can finally call it done(maybe)!
