These are the areas I am submitting for the Area Design Contest.
1. Candlekeep
This is the recently updated version of my Candlekeep area a lot of you have seen already. In this version I have completed the fountains and touched up the shade and texturing.
2. Cloakwood
This is a new area I have recently completed of Cloakwood. This is the deepest area of a 3 area series I am working on.
3. The Trade Way
Another area some of you have already seen. It is part of the Trade Way, a road that stretches along the Sword Coast passing through places like Baldur's Gate and Beregost.
Be sure to check out the new PW we are currently building.
Only a few very small errors, one Candlekeep building has two doors, I'd like the walkmesh to prevent me from walking through the horse pens. _________________________ Shadow Thief: Crimmor and Path of Evil blog Link

I have a minor problem with the walkmesh in Candlekeep. I'd rather not be able to walk through the horse pens. Also, one house has two doors, one inside the other. But really beautiful. 10. _________________________ Shadow Thief: Crimmor and Path of Evil blog Link

Christ these areas are so beatiful you could stop and drool at them in the toolset. Also I agree the areas are not identical replicas of the originals, but I think it's actually better this way. The world changes and I'm sure candlekeep didnt always look the way it was in Baldur's Gate for example. It's great to see little changes here and there.

Josh and me know each other for some time now. Josh talent for drawing the Sword Coast inspired from various official TSR books is impressive. People over the nVault know me for ?replicating Bioware stuff?, however I hope that Josh will be know to the nVault community for drawing the Sword Coast like it was supposed to be.

This version of the Swords Coast does not look at all like the one that was done by Bioware. On the other hand your obviously one of the best creators on the vault. Nice work!

This is really, really good. Makes me want to rethink my current project and set it in the Sword Coast. Absolutely beautiful. _________________________ Howls in the Dark The Chronicles of Azealus 1: The Tower in the Marsh Rasvar's module development blog
