I've been hard at work for the past couple of weeks decorating (and not stopping decorating) Tonto's Tort Table! He's (or She's!) a year old Hermann's over here in the UK.
IKEA Underbed Storage with a mix of Heathers for shelter, upturned flower pots and a spider tree up a hill. The 'rocky' background I made by spraying expanding builders foam on a cardboard sheet and sticking substrate to it with PVA glue! Humidity was a problem to start with as it's quite dry in the house so having failed with various humidifiers, grassed part of the Table to give Tonto something interesting to climb over and walk through and explore, and to push the Humidity up to 65%.
You can't really see it in the photos but there's also half a large pot hidden under the substrate in the hot section, giving him an underground cave!
The Cooler side, Watering hole and Hide before the grass grew:
