A Tale of Two Towers (pictures inside)
So I've seen a lot of complaining about how useless the current content in Hell is, but I decided to ignore all of them entirely and figure out what Hell's addition brought to the game other than a fairly mediocre means of travel. Here's what I came up with:
Some pretty sweet looking stone found just about everywhere down there which is incredibly easy to mine and an incredibly abundant and accessible supply of lava fountain blocks
Originally, I had a nifty little tower castle with, in my opinion, a pretty neat fountain in the middle, and a moat around the outside for both aesthetics and creeper repulsion. After finally finding some lava, making obsidian, getting my Hell portal up, and making the aforementioned observations, I decided to mirror it perfectly using lava in the place of water and the red Hell stone in the place of cobblestone. I personally think the results are pretty freaking cool looking.
TLDR: Look at the pictures
