    The one wall texture in too much used. Try to get some contrast's in your texture and lightning usage.

    And that computer dosent really fit. What is it for? Try to add some details around the CC.

    Nice work though <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I agree about the yellow warning stripe texture being a bit too prevalent. The architecture kicks butt though. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> The lighting seems washed out, but that's probably just a PS tweak you did to make it visible in the shots, right?

    correct. theres alot more contrast in the actual map. just screenies came out too dark.

    edit: btw the computer is only temporary, there will be some form of computer there, as its kind of a 'reception area' im just using that as an example. the blue doesnt go at all with the yellowy/orangey feel of the lighting in the map.

    The shiny pipe doesn't seem to go with the grubby walls. There is a less shiny version of that pipe texture in the NS.WAD I siuggest you use that instead.

    i do really like the 2 shots. the area looks very nice to me. maybe a spot white light pointing at the pipes in the wall to make the are more dramatic. nice work.

    i likes it very much. architecture is real good. you said that the lighting contrast would be better, but it seems like the lighting is still too general. i went into ps and lowered the levels. while it looks better, it's like too much general contrast. you should try putting some guard-rails on those white overhead lights. that'd make some nice shadow contrast. but i would rather see it in-game before i made any big judgements. also, i don't think the wall texture is over used. it keeps the general theme at least.

    first pic:

    I like this. Everything looks nice, but I think you should get some texture between the room walls and the grid floor. Other thing is that inferior thing in the floor. Hopefully you know what I mean <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
    I think it doesn't really fit there. I think you should try to make that more dirty.. but looks nice at the moment.

    second pic:

    In my opinion the control panel thingy doesn't really fit there because it's square and the railing is round. The ceiling looks a bit flat, try to add some nice pipes and places to hide for example skulks. Now the lamps look too blocky.
    And one thing is that doorway on the back. The corridor looks cool but the shape of the entry thing looks a bit off-place.

    Looks still looks quite nice. Keep up the good work! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Be pleased that you can actually finish a good looking room.
    I can NEVER seem to finish any map <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
    I do the odd tfc conc_ map but thats because they're simple.
    N-S mapping would take me years
