      @@SerpaDesign Awesome! I think your skills are amazing! And not only with sculpting but with woodwork too! Just like with the ghost shrimp ship (rip), the cabin and the bamboo fountain. But honestly I think this one was my favourite as I really like this type of tribal culture and I think it fits very nicely with nature.

    I know your style usually focuses on organic and natural elements, so you don't include many sculptures or manmade elements like this one. So I'm really pleased to see how this one turned out! Your builds inspire me a lot as an artist myself, and I always think "...and then I'd put a small sculpture in there for my own version." I think it's wonderful to try new things and be inspired to put our own spin on something. :)

    First the Crystal Caves Paludarium, then the Shishi-Odoshi Fountain, and now this?! This video is a tribute to Tanner's vast repoitoire of skills he's accumulated over the years - a composite sythesis showcasing just how far he's come in his artistic talents. In my eyes, the distressed appearance of the ruins coupled with the fresh, vibrant pop of the plants makes this build a masterpiece; you've been killing it despite your finger Tanner! Keep up the good work! ✌

Super cool idea, and I’d love to see an even larger example at some point. Great job.

  • @CadenNahal

      ​@@jovoncooper6116depending on the amount of vision a person has there are a lot of options for accessibility. A standard desktop keyboard doesn't require vision to use if you can find the correct hand placement (most have braille or other raised markers on the f and j keys) and there are full braille options for keyboards as well. A lot of blind people will also use voice to text options. 😊

    Small money saving tip for anyone who wants to cast silicone. You can fill up the corners and other empty spaces with foam blocks glued in place, recycled silicone pieces or any other material. This will make you require less silicone as it's pretty expensive.
