    I had an idea for a 'Cabin in the woods' style infection map, where the humans would hold on up a large log cabin, and the infected would attempt to break in through various entry points. The humans would rely on weapons laid outside the cabin, therefore having to take the risk of exposure for the chance to gain more firepower.

    I spent hours experimenting with various log-shaped objects and colours, to get a wooden log style I was happy with. I then built components such as staircases, decking, windows and the roof, all seperately. That's why I'm describing this map as a concept rather than a fully functional map.

    It appears a bit bare in its current state but I've made sure it's playable for slayer and CTF. (Red and blue spawns are set up for infection when it arrives).

    There are two shotguns on the outskirts of the map beside the rock arrangements, and there is a single sniper rifle in the bedroom. This is not the final weapon layout.

    I'm posting this now rather than finishing the map because I'm going away for a week and want some feedback on the look and feel of the map. I'm trying to create a horror atmosphere but I need it to be light enough to be able to actually see the cabin. There are some lighting issues with some of the logs that makes them appear darker. The map is currently just a floating island in space, but in time I may create a boundary.

    I wanted to submit this concept in time for the 343 Infection map submission. If people like the look and feel of this map then I'll refine it next week. Enjoy!

    You can find it in the bookmarks of my service record in halo 5.

    cabin looks good. I think you should change the roof color to black or dark brown, cause shingles.

    Thanks. I did think about doing that. I was using a reference cabin image which had a wooden roof, but I'm interested to see what other textures will look like. I guess it stands out at the moment because of all of the other surfaces have a log texture and the roof is plain.
