The Lone Tusker

Remember this place from the all-time blockbuster Avatar? No one could help wonder how James Cameron made this place. After watching the movie, I happened to have asked many people how exactly this set-up was made. I got a lot of weird and unbelievable so-called-facts that I surely did not believe(Until now!)
