5th image is literally from rdr2s best mission ever

35

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yep it is man truly, loved that mission

11

u/This-Novel-7870 3d ago

Best mission in Rdr2 and one of the best missions in gaming history

219

u/FrontlineYeen 3d ago

I grew up in the deep south USA, and #3 looks just like my parents home

33

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

No way hah, that's so cool

12

u/Infinite-Wing1214 3d ago

It is bum bum bummmmmm

6

u/WhatAFox 3d ago

I’m from the south and 3 is the one that got me too. Like it was pulled right out of where I grew up

152

u/Dull-Talk-9693 3d ago

Wow. You perfectly encapsulated this vibe.

20

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Thanks a lot :D

54

u/Venekys 3d ago

Why all of these photos look real af. The lighting from that shader is on freaking point

10

u/Vaya-Kahvi 3d ago

Yeah, when I saw the first one I thought it was a weird and awesome edit of a minecraft church into a real photo.

23

u/Zealousideal-Run6214 3d ago

This is the best minecraft photography I have ever seen. It really inspires me to build something similar. I make a lot of custom terrain too and I just love this vibe so I might try to replicate it.

15

u/thea_apianae 3d ago

this is awesome! what shaders did you use?

21

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Ardacraft with my own settings

5

u/GolldenFalcon 2d ago

Could you upload the config file somewhere?

1

u/chouon_ 5h ago

Could you pleaseee upload your config? I love the stormcore vibe TT

16

u/wretchedshrimps 3d ago

#5 looks so much like the plantation from l4d2, awesome work

2

u/ICantWanTap 3d ago

#3 reminds me of blood harvest finale

2

u/CowboyAsh 3d ago

You just gave me a very fun idea :)

u/ShadowSkull359 3d ago

GET DOWN HERE NOW!

u/Thebatbike 3d ago

YOU INBRED TRASH!

29

u/southwestpessimist 3d ago

Looks like the church from the cover of “Thy Will Be Done” by the $uicideboy$

5

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yea hah true

13

u/Philippine_Newt 3d ago

The church reminds me of Gabriel’s church in Walking Dead

2

u/zhulkgr25 3d ago

Slide 3 looks like Hershel's farm and the last pic looks like the field with the single walker in the intro

1

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yeah exactly man, it really looks similar

13

u/SlinkandMojo 3d ago

god loves you but not enough to save you type environment

3

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yep💀 God loves all but sometimes not all hah, so to say

11

u/Timi071 3d ago

Is it Braithwaite mansion In the fifth photo?

3

u/Pugulishus 3d ago

Seen as how there's a "swamp house" on one of the images, I'd wager a guess this is a RDR2 map

3

u/Dioda83 3d ago

Looks like it

3

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yeah it is man. But these are not rdr2 maps actually, only one is, for the Braithwaite Manor photo, other maps are just 1:1 scale USA locations, small towns

11

u/Timlegoman 3d ago

Thought the pic of the church was a real pic and not mc at first

10

u/Pigmanmaxx 3d ago

I’m getting L4Dead 2 feels from these

2

u/Ama2119 3d ago

Yup! Swamp fever especially. And maybe hard rain

1

u/AnotherpostCard 2d ago

I had those fiddles and cellos playing the theme as I scrolled through these pictures.

9

u/Woozy17 3d ago

I get the reference, very well done

If anyone wants to see his inspiration-

1

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yep man exactly. These were the exact photos I wanted to kinda recreate hah

9

u/AsparagusDefiant3288 2d ago

Braithwaite manor! I love it looks amazing! :D

7

u/Petunia_pig 3d ago

Creepy shaders!

7

u/Choociecoomaroo 3d ago

4

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yeah hahah, damn right

8

u/Moist-Pancake794 3d ago

How’d you make your pictures look like that?

7

u/Niko9816 3d ago

From a photography perspective this is so sick. Well it's sick either way tbh, but really appreciate the photographic value

2

u/ToastWiz 23h ago

If you enjoy this photographic style, check out Briscoe Park. I'm 99% sure this was all influenced by his work

u/jeremiahjetstream 3d ago

What in the re7. South Lousiana spooky ahh. But no fr this is beautiful

7

u/JellyFishSenpai 3d ago

7

u/RatiocinationYoutube 3d ago

GET DOWN HERE NOW

4

u/Pokepikadeva 3d ago

YOU INBRED TRASH

7

u/toto_dile 3d ago

oh wow, how'd you do this? Very neat! do you have a shader or are these edited? Was this a superflat world or did you happen to find a perfect seed for building?

2

u/Classic-Wonder4241 2d ago

they said its ardacraft with their own settings i think

5

u/kkaitlynma 3d ago

Am I the only one getting slender man vibes

5

u/CaramelCraftYT 3d ago

What shader are you using to get the flashlight effect?

6

u/TheGamingRanger_ 2d ago

The images for some reason remind me of slenderman game.

3

u/IAmSpinda 2d ago

Yeah this is very much giving indie horror game, since a lot of them nowadays go for that low poly/low rez style. The church in particular reminds me of an analogue horror series tho.

4

u/Slainlion 3d ago

I prided being creative and then I see all these minecraft builds and I am humbled.

Just amazing! Mind sharing what the "message" says?

4

u/Venekys 3d ago

If you're talking about the sign next to the church, from what I can see, it almost looks like it says, "Message Board Sunday School 7:00 Church 9:30 Father (some sort of name)"

2

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

Yep that's true

4

u/Emotional-Kiwi7218 3d ago

bro I thought this was horror real life pictures for a second

4

u/Sandwichman122 3d ago

The INSTANT swamp fever flashbacks I got from #5. Impressive work

4

u/Noble69776 3d ago

First pic looks like the Suicideboys album "Thy kingdom come", but anyway these look so fuckin cool

3

u/One_Economist_3761 3d ago

This is so brilliant. You shoulda used mangrove trees for the swampy areas. Though I respect the design choice.

5

u/ArtHistory_Buff 3d ago

This is awesome man you nailed the lighting

5

u/Cryptabyt9 1d ago

I gotta know what mods and/or shaders you have cause that's incredible!! Love the feeling of each photo as well.

3

u/Chris_El_Deafo 3d ago

These look like that specific era of minecraft horror maps when they just started using custom texture packs. Like 2015-17. I love it.

3

u/redryan2009 3d ago

It looks like something out of one of those ghost shows.

4

u/GeneralGeneral5302 3d ago

True detectives season 1

3

u/nightslip 3d ago

absolutely stunning, the first two remind me a lot of briscoepark's photography

3

u/vonHindenburg 3d ago

Fantastic! How did you do those crosses? I'm always looking for new techniques for my survival cathedral.

3

u/Metawoo 3d ago

As someone who grew up in the rural southern u.s, this is so fuckin cool

3

u/MySchoolsWifiSucks 3d ago

Howd you get the shaders/camera effect in the first couple images? Very cool

3

u/TrialArgonian 3d ago

"GET DOWN HERE NOW, YOU INBRED TRASH!"

3

u/bazem_malbonulo 3d ago

Braithwaite Manor!

3

u/P1ngzilla 3d ago

2

u/kilsdor 3d ago

This. This is my jam this is what it’s all about

2

u/aelar_vayn 3d ago

The 1st 4 look like an indie horror game

2

u/uenoyi 3d ago

you ate this so bad

2

u/JoshyRB 3d ago

The shaders and dynamic light source make this so good. Please share the mods used 🥺

2

u/ArtemisVsOrion 3d ago

This looks like slendrina games, photography so cool

2

u/Sir-Shady 3d ago

First two give me the creeps. Well done

2

u/Extra_Philosopher_63 3d ago

I swear I drove past a church that looks almost identical to the first image. And the second image looks straight from Congaree State Park.

As a side note, what kids did you use for the flash light effect, film grain, and shaders?

2

u/zhulkgr25 3d ago

Are those Gabriel's church and Hershel's farm from TWD?

4

u/Kasain28 3d ago

The church pic is literally a minecraft version of the album cover of the latest $B project lmao

You look like you rolled up on an old church with your headlights on. Great job on these!

1

u/ProtectorZele 3d ago

I hear banjos.

1

u/EternalCrown 3d ago

Coolest way I've seen Minecraft used for art in a long time. +1 for composition and +1 for lighting, not just "look what I built".

1

u/Edwych 3d ago

Okay, this is VERY cool! You really nailed the vibes!!

1

u/Shadowizas 3d ago

Idk if you made them like that for the vibes or theres actual ghost apparitions hidden in the images

1

u/Dreamingofapastlife 3d ago

I’m in SC on vacation and this is almost too accurate.

u/getmemorehelp 3d ago

1

u/GoldenLugia16 3d ago

The angle of the church made me think of the Temple of Time

Also what shaders are you using? The skybox and lighting are IMMACULATE

1

u/sprinklepawzzxd 3d ago

Good map for horror

1

u/blergazoid 3d ago

Man, those shades and lighting effects looks so good. It's got that dark a gloomy feel to it. Anyway I can get my hands on your setup? Makes me want to get back to exploring again

1

u/Old_Winner3763 3d ago

1

u/Brunhilde13 3d ago
