Looking for terrainer in AoS map

I am looking for a terrainer for my AoS map which aims to be a little continuation of the war of the spider that was abruptly ended awhile ago. A little details would be nice, so, I'll provide some. (permission have been sought from sheep.spirit and Plastic_angel to continue this.)

//Start
Name: Blight of Northrend (decided to expand it to include more races, the old Wots was too confined as in only undeads and spiders heroes)

Style: AoS

Story: After the Argent Dawn has lost the phylactery of kel thuzad due to a traitor within their midst, the have decided to move their forces, which include both forces from the alliance and the horde, to Northrend where they managed to find the phylactery and the place where kel thuzad is being summoned back into being. The argent dawn have with them the fragments of the ashbringer, which is the artifact that has kept the little defended camp from being overrun by minion scourge. The Argent Dawn is determined to destroy the phylactery and phase kel thuzad from existence forever while the higher ranking scourge (the heroes) are keen to destroy the fragment of the ashbringer to remove all opposition from Northrend.

Players: 4v4 (may be extended to 5v5 or retracted to 3v3, depends on development)

Work done:
-- Items are currently being designed by my friends and other people from different and random communities.

-- An extensive equipment system is 100% hand-written by me to balance out "abuses" or cases like an ranger modeled hero having 5 melee weapons in her inventory and all giving effects and giving bonuses. The equipment system has gems and all sorts of stuff. (inspired by InvX and blade's inventory system, but runs on a totally different code and thing)

-- Heroes are not very much done yet, though i have made many spells before during my random times and when i am bored or for someone else through requests, which can be easily put into a new hero (with, of course, new spells would be written by me again to fit into the theme of the hero)

-- Familiar system is currently in the works, again, because this is aiming to be a continuation of WoTS, plastic_angel's idea would be used, this time, with v_jass.

-- class system where warriors have their own way of mana system and there are 2 more unique classes other than mana users, which have already been made.

-- unique revival system which enables dead players to play a part too, which is again 100% written by me. though inspired by world of Warcraft, it is totally not at all like it, and don't worry, it's not some graveyard-run-to-your-corpse kinda thing.

Winning Conditions:
destroy the phylactery/ ashbringer fragment.
OR
Steal it from the pedestal
-There would be shades patrolling the UD base and wards around the Ad base.
- The only way to steal the artifacts is to buy an invisible suit fro a goblin merchant that changes you into a thief unit which can cast steal on the pedestal.
- when the eyes/shades are active, there is NO Way you can steal from the pedestal, but you can kill a respawnable unit to disrupt/ deactivate the eyes/shades.
- The you can make your way and steal the thing. once stolen, you will be visible to all players and you'll have to run back to your artifact in order to win the game, if you die, the artifact would be dropped and if no allies pick it up, it would be returned to the original place in 5 secs/when an enemy picks it up

//End

Yea, any other comments/suggestions are welcomed, if you are interested, pls PM me for details on the terrain and stuff. Thanks in advance.

EDIT: and yea, i have tried to terrain the map myself, with very unsightly results :P, i really suck at terraining
(O, just realised that i had put this post in the wrong forum, moderators move it pls thanks :) )

If this is gonna replace WotS I feel obliged to help. I'm a decent terrainer but a slow one. I'll try to help as much as possible. Also organize the text a bit to look a bit more professional.

Also scratch the familiar system. It sounds as cumbersome and not a necessary system IMO.
