The humble beginnings to what I believe could be an epic map...

This idea was inspired by Supernatual (http://www.cwtv.com/shows/supernatural). The terraforming is loosely based around this beautiful, yet gloomy, depiction of a place in Dante's Purgatorio (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purgatorio):

Buildings will be added, but right now I want to get the terraforming down. I want the landscape to be hauntingly beautiful, as "Purgatory" is depicted in the above picture.

Looks nice! I would love to see more pictures about it, like corn. So far I think it would be a good idea. ;)

Terraforming is pretty good,but make sure to add a lot of buildings and such to fill up the empty space!

>.< Did you read any of the posts? Sorry, but I already addressed this. I'm finishing all the terraforming first; no buildings yet. Thanks for the feedback though, as that's always appreciated.

It's funny you are doing this off of Dante's Purgatorio. I am currently reading a book called Inferno and it revolves around Dante's Inferno and references him a lot. This looks really interesting. I hope it ends up well!

I just read a book that referenced the Divine Comedy by Dante frequently, which got me interested. Thanks for the feedback :)

The terraforming is too smooth I say, it would look much better if you went back over it in Voxel Sniper to make it seem more realistic and more like the pic you showed. Other than that it looks fine and wish you god luck with this project :).

Mods always have good feedback :) Anyways, that sounds like a great idea; I could probably do that with randomerode and melt brushes, and then touch it up.
