It is possible, takes a lot of time tough, which I sadly don't have.
You can look up surf_delusion, I think that this map is a good example.

If it's not worth your time to make a unique surf map, then it shouldn't be worth our time to waste looking at it.
Sound harsh? I'm encouraging you not to just post blindly and actually go and do something interesting.

Don't look at me. Both my WIP maps are industrial snow and jungle
Aesthetics aren't the only thing you can have fun with. Ravidge's third stage of Panic (or Hysteria I think he's calling it now) is a good example of experimentation within a game-type.

Looks like he built the explosion animation for the finale and is previewing it in Hammer.
How do you do that, anyway? Is there some sort of expensive app that'll simulate the explosion for you, or do you have to animate the whole thing by hand?

Blender does physics simulation, but it's extremely fiddly. It changes every single time you run it which means if you want a specific look, you're going to lose days of your life trying to accomplish it. But the good news is all you have to do is put pieces of your explosion where you want them to start, set some mass and gravity settings, then hit play. All the really hard work it does for you.
I've done basically nothing but that since September.. though a lot of it was teaching myself the limitations of Blender's physics features.
