I Built a Corrupted Monastery Diorama… Something Lives Inside

The journey nears its end. After surviving the horrors of Oakhaven and the Blighted Forest, the remaining heroes finally reach the Monastery of Vorgath the Veiled. But what awaits inside is far worse than anything they have faced before. In this dark fantasy diorama build, I create Stage 3 of the story: The Corrupted Monastery. Once a sacred place, the monastery has become a twisted sanctuary of decay. Its halls are filled with unnatural creatures, broken relics, and the remnants of those who failed before. What was meant to be a place of refuge has become something else entirely. Using XPS foam, detailed 3D prints, custom textures, and atmospheric lighting, I bring this final chapter to life. ──────────────────── THE 3-PART QUEST • STAGE 1: The Infected Village • STAGE 2: The Blighted Forest • STAGE 3: The Corrupted Monastery (Current Video) ──────────────────── THE STORY: Only a few remain. The monastery stands silent, but the corruption has already taken hold within its walls. The deeper they go, the more reality begins to fracture. Twisted beings guard the inner sanctum, and something ancient now resides where faith once lived. This is where the journey ends. Or where something far worse begins. ──────────────────── Miniatures & Models Used: Bestiarum Miniatures https://www.myminifactory.com/users/B...
