This version of VillainCraft Asylum is for an adventure map I'm working on.

New paintings, including a roshach test, a first aid kit prop, a medical degree prop, a shelf full of medication prop, an elivator dial prop, an NPC from the adventure map sitting behind a desk, and "waiting room art" of a ship on the ocean and a peaceful stream. Some of these may be removed from the final version.

Most texture pack artists approach the bookshelves either as literal bookshelves or as some other method of storing data (scrolls, drawers, occasional computer cores), and I knew very early on that I didn't want to do it like that. How can data storage really feel evil, after all?

Many of my textures I came up with because I needed something specific for the Evil Lair map I'm building (which will unfortunately never be released due to mod issues), which was the original reason I made this pack. This was one of those textures. Specifically, the mad science lab wing of the lair was feeling a bit empty. I decided that I'd make the sort of shelves you tend to see in mad science labs, littered with gadgets and test tubes and creepy things preserved in formaldehyde. And of course a skull. There's always a skull.

The original bookshelf had just an oscilloscope, a set of test tubes, a poorly drawn fetus in a poorly drawn jar, and of course that ever-present skull, although quality of the graphics improved over time, of course, as I started incorporating textures and images taken from photographs (I just can't draw that well by hand at such a small scale, and I'm not ashamed to admit it). The current version of the formaldehyde sample is somewhat ambiguous, which I rather like. It’s taken from a photo of some sort of preserved animal fetus, but at such a low pixel count it could also very well be a lung or some other organ.

It wasn't until I implemented CTM that I was really satisfied with the bookshelf texture. The one original texture looked awkward and out of place when tiled on its own. CTM allowed me to flesh it out a lot more by adding more gadgets (a Geiger counter, a redstone torch bulb, and a magnetic suspension canister holding some sort of phlebotium, in case you were wondering), more glassware filled with mysterious glowing coloured liquids, and finally some actual books to justify the fact that books were still part of the recipe. Now the bookshelves add to the creepy villainous ambiance instead of distracting from it.
