About Leave in CS
A creator-led miniature studio
Leave in CS is the independent workshop of maker Elias Carter, creating physical tributes to familiar gaming environments.
Meet Elias
I build each scene one at a time—from assembly and texture to paint, inspection and careful packing. The goal is to turn a remembered in-game place into a physical collectible that feels at home on a desk or shelf.
Made by hand
Each display is assembled, textured and finished by hand. Small natural differences in colour, texture and placement are part of the handmade process.
Designed as a collectible
The scenes combine hand-painted details, a clear acrylic display case, warm LED lighting and a wood-tone base for a clean shelf or desk presentation.
Independent fan-inspired artwork
