This is aesthetically one of the best l4d campaigns I've seen so far. That saferoom door in the rock pile looks funny. I really like the many colors in the sewer tunnels. Just make sure you give hunters enough high-pounce spots and smokers cliffside pull spots. And keep the medkits sparse. Keep working hard on this.

wow, this looks pretty sweet! shot number 2 & 10 look fucking ace!
how long have you been working on this?
i never seem to know how l4d mappers can create such sheer volumes of content...though never usually as consistant and aesthetically pleasing as this one

good stuff :smt023

Really like the light and design in the first screenshots, and the bridge looks good to! :D

Those are some of the best looking custom Left 4 Dead maps I've ever laid my eyes on. Next time, though, I would suggest not using the [IMG] tags if you have this many pictures as it makes viewing the for the first time difficult.

It's looking very nice, needs a bit more work though but I suppose that's why it's WIP.

Cut down your screenshots next time though, there are way too many and most of them aren't needed. They are either 10 feet away from other screenshots or don't show anything important. Examples are screenshots 17 and 20. No one really cares about a small displacement cliff with Valve's tree models or a giant burning plane which is also one of Valve's models. Only take screenshots of the most captivating/important parts of your campaign, not every single room there is to show.

Also, i was thinking about making a short vid to showoff the maps. is there a decent vid making tut for L4D somewhere someone could link me to?

The simplest alternative would be to put [IMG] tags around the best and leave the rest as links. Another would be to set up a gallery using an image-hosting website and link to it.
