Hello, and thank you for your very nice comments. I made all the models myself back in 2002 (as i mention at the beginning), using Maya and Photoshop at the time. And I also made all the textures except for one, the snow covered ground texture with any rocks and stuff which I actually took straight of of IWD II at the time, just by using print screen And in the same way, I also used the trees and the three little carts that can be seen in the lower left corner of the Thieves Stronghold Exterior. To be honest, it wasn't very hard for me, since I was, and still am a professional 3d artist. You see, being a 3d artist and a big fan of IWD and BG naturally lead to me too wanting to creating a few background images myself. Now days, I just don't have the time anymore, but, I'm very glad that some people like them and might actually use them in their own projects. All I wish, is if somebody ever does make a mod using them, just to let me know. It will make me happy to see them in-game

Only jpeg images. Sorry, that's all I've got. :-)

I'm glad you guys like the artwork. Would be nice to walk around it some day

YES. I was really in it at the time. Now, many years later, I'm finding myself player BG1 again, and this time in widescreen Also, it's sort of my job, I am a digital artist. SO back then, much younger, it was just a joy to make all that stuff. Staying up late was just fun back then.

Hello to all. “I wasn't sure were to actually post this, so please correct me if this isn't the right place.” As the title implies, I have some art I had made a few years ago, (I think in 2002), supposedly for an IWD mod (can't remember if it was for I or II). That never happened, and luckily after discovering this site “the Gibberlings”, I remembered I still had that art somewhere. Well, I am more than happy (now that I found it) to give it to the community to use. There are 18 maps (environments) I had made back then. 2 are for a Dwarven Stronghold 3 for a Gnomes (Alchemists/Engineers Something) Stronghold 2 for a Druids Stronghold 3 for a Paladins Stronghold 3 for a Thieves Stronghold 4 for a Wizards Stronghold and 1 random wilderness site and here is the link to them (hope this works): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22276004/IWD_Mod_Art%20%28By%20Aranthor%29.rar As I mentioned, these are free for the community to use. I think I’ve had them hidden for too long :-( Also, back then when I made these, I did have the time and energy to make stuff like this. Today, well, things are a little different, so I don't think I will be able to spend time again (at least any time soon) to start making any more. Anyway, I hope people find some use for these old lost pieces of art. I would love to see them in a mod some day :-)
