Fury Islands (2022)

A bit of an unpleasant night at the main arrivals port, with hotel reception located next door on the main island

The main interchange on the main island - the beach is right in front of us.

The long walk up towards the castle

Penguin island, named because there are penguin nesting boxes located on the island. Did you know the Galapagos penguins live at the equator? Penguins aren't just Antarctic creatures.

To give an idea of how shallow the islands are - that's a 3m sea level rise. Half the islands are flooded.


So I know this is a really weird feeling, but I am actually uploading a project I just finished (yesterday)! The Fury Islands are a tropical island chain with a resort on it, a castle, shipwreck, coral reef and penguin habitat. I was inspired for this map while playing Battlefield 4 on the Operation Mortar map, fell in love with it and built up an idea from there.  All in all, I made this over the course of six or so weeks, and I'm pretty pleased with the results.


Definitely have a lot more stuff that I can't wait to share with you all.
