In progress.
Ignore me for now.
Wraeclast's First and Finest Quality Establishment for Pleasure and Relaxation The glittering cleanliness provides a warm respite from the moment you enter. Couches afford a comfortable place to converse with friends; the grand balcony offers a peerless view. If you wish to conduct business with the house, arrangements may be made with the elegant mistress of our establishment or her urbane executive. The upstairs hallways are strictly off-limits to those who have not paid the appropriate fee and been invited up by the courtesan(s) of choice. We keep a wide variety of companions for all tastes and inclinations; our staff are well-trained in many arts and may be engaged for entertainment or conversation as well as more intimate pleasures. We maintain an effective enforcer upstairs for the safety of both guests and staff. While you wait to be invited upstairs, please savor the other offerings of the house. Refreshing greenery provides the purest botanical specimens to be found on the continent. The sauna is supplied with pure spring water drawn from the mountains around Highgate and cleansed of all corruption before being heated to a comfortable temperature for your enjoyment. Our parlor is well-stocked with literature of all varieties; if you're craving a particular work, one of the staff will be happy to fetch it for you from upstairs. You may also take the opportunity to safely admire the many exotic creatures of Wraeclast up close in the menagerie. We hope to improve your treacherous journeys through Wraeclast with a place to forget the rampant corruption and danger of the world. When you find yourself despairing at what you encounter, come and spend an evening in safety and happiness with us.

I call my hideout The Opulent and it's in the Warbands league. Character shown is Brinerot. It's very much themes around Zana's and Elreon's more expensive decorations.
Here's the whole imgur album I made for the competition. http://imgur.com/a/Ge8bL#0 We start at the crafting area of the hideout. Everything is placed quite near the stash and waypoint for very easy access because we know that every exile likes to live fast. Some extra tools are laid down for studious exiles. Next we have the mapping area. The roof is clearly broken as snow is falling. Also some pumpkins have decided to grow here in this dark and cold ruin, they must be magical with all those lights glowing. The only thing missing is a god ray shining on to the pumpkins, winkwink. We also start to see more of the infamous Weta problem that several exiles have in their hideouts. The masters have their lounge where they spend their time when they aren't bothered by exiles. Maybe someone is secretly feeding the Wetas because there seems to be so many these days. I'm looking at you Haku. Behind the curtain we find the Horde where our brave exile has gathered an immense fortune. And some books and other stuff too. A hideout can't run without steady stream of supplies. Luckily some of us are strong enough to drag those carts up the stairs. Not all of the hideout is yet in use by the current owners. Part of the hideout is still covered by dust and debris. A few ancient tombs are located here and mummified corpses lay here waiting for their resting place. Where did those webs come from, are the Wetas now eating corpses? And some cages and an altar left behind by the previous owners. The small pond still seems to host some life. I guess someone should clean this up someday. Maybe Catarina could help with those corpses.

So here is my hideout. Its inspired by Treasure Island and its TV show counterpart Black Sails as well as from Running Wild discography. It is a port-town and a pirate haven of some sorts. It is based on Haku's hideout in Hardcore league.
Treasure Island hideout
The shore that works as a docking site The lighthouse. On the left its the market and some vendors. A better view of the market place. Haku is the island's armour and weapon smith. Leo is here also guarding traitors that he keeps prisoners waiting for trial. Well, GGG in one picture On a higher level than the market and docks, Vorici is waiting for contracts regarding prizes. Above the map device and stash. Next to the stash Tora is the main smuggler to sell your loot (Very convient for vendoring after a map run or trading with other players too.) On the left a small much needed oasis providing fresh water for the haven The tomb on the right honors the founder of this town and the path leads to Zana's headquarters (She is running the place) as well the area where celebrations are made after a big prize has been captured. The merchant here works as a bartender too providing alchohol and food for the feasts. Next to him supplies are being inspected. So thats my Treasure Island hideout, hope you guys enjoyed it. Good luck to everyone.

Hidden Island of Wraeclast(Hakus HO , STANDARD)
Located near the Twilight Strand Many ships have wracked on the rocky shores of the Hidden Isle and many exiles died in the deep dark waters that surround it But those that survived have made a settlement and started to live their lives anew Even the Masters of Wraelast have come to help the survivors We can see some exiles fishing and many shipwrecks cracked open on the jagged rocks One ship stands out the most A ship of a long lost civilization Made out of boat wreckage 5,library statue,lion statue 1 and Apprentice banner Here we see a sad image of 2 exiles looking at a recently drowned exile On this picture we see Tora mistress of the Hunt in the small encampment Talking to some exiles and just relanxing before the hunt(the shore is littered with crypt rubble and forest rocks so it looks untamed and wild we can also see alot of palms and exotic trees) As we can see on this picture Catarina mistress of the Dead is clearly at home on this island You can see her sick gory sacrifices and enslaved victims suffering in her Hut of the Damned :D This picture shows the home of my Shadow guarded by 3 fearsome exiles and 1 drunken individual sitting at the crate (all the tents are oriath army trents) As we ascend to the middle section of the isle we can see the Waypoint and a better looking encampment inhabited by Elreon the Loremaster and Leo Master of the Arena We can also see some supply crates and exiles scattered around The armour bench is cleverly hidden in the study desk 1 that Elreaon uses and the Blessing font is in the Oriath army barrel 1 My favourite picture is this one The exiles are fishing on the cliff looking at the sea I love the serenity of this picture And the last picture is the peak ot the island inhabited by the beautiful Zana Master Cartographer and her massive golden map device she constructed Also all the tresure my exiles have amassed in the years of survival (the stairs leading to her are constructed of beam 1 and mossy wall arches 1) (the crater look is made of large rocks 1-12, Hanging lamps and trees) (Stash is hidden in the copper chest 1 so it looks more like a chest full of gold and jewels and is surrounded by cave tresure ) (and finally the center of the map device is constructed of vaal fire pit 1,mat 1,cage,table and gear 1 the side parts are made of extraction device 4,golden statue 1 and 2 and pipes 3) And thats it I hope you like my HO :) Sorry but i have no idea how to make the images smaller :/ Pls if you know how to do it send me a message and ill fix it I hope youre not preferring people that spent real money on your ho micros Im sorry that my HO has no micros bought in it (just the Apprentice banner) but I really dont want to spent money on HO micros Last edited by Polarl3ear#4530 on Sep 12, 2015, 5:54:18 PM

Skull Throne
Yes, i know about The Khorne :) The basic idea - to make the crafting benches part of the scenery. Skulls of my enemies carpet the foot of my throne...
