Fortnite Fan Recreates Chapter 2 Remix Map Out of Clay



Key Takeaways

  • Fan sculpted Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix map using clay in impressive detail.
  • Sculpture includes major locations like Snoop Dogg’s mansion and Ice Spice’s Ice Isle.
  • The only missing location is the Rig, promised to be added in an update.



A creative Fortnite fan has brought a taste of the return of the game’s classic Chapter 2 map in the form of a clay sculpture. The impressive creation covers nearly all the locations from the Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix island map, which debuted early in November 2024.

Though the game itself is less than ten years old, so much has happened in Fortnite that many of its players experience outright nostalgia for its earlier periods. Developer Epic Games has leaned into that sense with Fortnite Remix events. Fortnite Remix Chapter 2 expands on the concept further, incorporating new content into a replica of the original Fortnite Chapter 2 map, like collaborations with famous rappers like Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Ice Spice.

Fortnite Leaks New Item Coming in Chapter 6

A new powerful item is rumored to come to Fortnite Chapter 6 and could arrive amid many big changes and high hopes for Chapter 6’s impact.

The Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix map was the subject of a modeling clay sculpture created by Reddit user SMPlushFilms, who replicated the island as seen from the map screen by hand. The island displays most of the most popular Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix locations and landing spots, making for an impressive recreation that, for many veteran Fortnite players, is instantly recognizable.



Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix Clay Sculpture Models Almost the Whole Island

SMPlushFilms’ sculpture was created from modeling clay in various colors, and took “nearly a week” to make. It incorporates a surprising amount of detail, for a map that’s based on a greatly zoomed-out view of the island. Using various colors of clay to represent rivers, roads, and landscape features, the map represents major locations like the Weeping Woods, Snoop Dogg’s Doggpound mansion in the center, and Steamy Stacks to the northeast. The sculpture also accurately captures topographical differences, correctly modeling major features like the tall mountain overlooking Misty Meadows, and the renamed Fortnite Shark Island, which was taken over by rapper Ice Spice and turned into “Ice Isle.”


The only thing missing from the Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix sculpture is the Rig, the massive offshore industrial facility sitting near the coast of Slurpy Swamp. SMPlushFilms’ acknowledged that the location was missing in their description of the sculpture, promising to add it in a future update.

The sculpture greatly impressed the members of the Fortnite Reddit community, with commenters praising SMPlushFilms’ “sheer dedication” and sculpting skill. Others remarked on how easily recognizable Fortnite‘s map locations are even from a minimal amount of detail, and likened the creation to another recent fan work that rendered the map of Elden Ring in low-poly 3D.
