The rocks and the bridge are really awesome!
lol @ wpoly though =D

ah, I remember seeing the first bits of this -way- back in the day... if you know what I mean

Very very cool, but my only gripe would be the sky compared to the environment lighting. One or the other needs to be changed for a better match, which I think would do nothing but help this already very super-spiffy scene Ah well. I'm just a picky little annoying type :P hehe

Holy freaking batman! You sir know what makes a good looking map.

My method is covered in the rockwork tutorials in the "scenery" section here, I think they cover the process pretty well. Thanks for all the comments guys

Impressing. I really like how you did the landscape. I use another method for cliffs/landscape... Maybe I`ll change to your method some day..

Keep it up

Gameplay and connectivity in this map is terrible but atmosphere and architecture is astonishing :). Therefor I give it a 5 due to the competitions rules. I recommend you make this map playable! Great work!

I'm sure there is something that can be done to slightly lower the R's, but at this point with HL2 on its way it dosent really matter all that much. Great map ReNo, as always, keeps me motivated

An absolutely fantastic beginning.
