Reminds me of Snowglobe..

The bottom of each platform ought to have have some transparency, to flow better into the whole theme of the map.

Nice idea and mostly looks nice, but I don't think the gray sides of the map blend. I think you should make them look like glass.
There are other worlds than these

I also tried this by adding some occopacity but it ruined both gameplay and visuals:(


so if anybody finds a solution... please come up with it:)

reminds me of that default sand type death map that I can place my finger on, same sort of gameplay I imagine...if you know which map I'm talking about.

Just give the bowl part of the polygons a texture overstretch, and make sure to color them a glass-y blue, but not blue like the rest of the map. Rather, this said color should lend itself to the ambient atmosphere of the map.

Right now, in my opinion, it looks rather good.

Nice idea, and good everything about it, yet you could've made it a LITTLE bit darker around the center parts, i still like it though.

ehh,  idea isn't bad, but map is kinda unfinished and looks more like pot with frozen potatos then the fishbowl...
1 some light effects like this

2 i don't like islands, i think more *rocky* texture with much more agressive shading suit them better
3 how about adding fish castle and some junk? ancor or broken ship for example
4 some seaweeds

EDIT
btw i remember that shark.bmp - it was first scenery i made for Soldat  ::) how nostalgic  :'(

EVEN MORE EDIT
after making SnorbRMX i was thinking about making something like aquarium, but you surpassed me

LAST EDIT
 :-\

mm eehh

What do you mean by *shadowed version*? All i did was editing your overview screenshot.
Dunno about that glass, i think it's probably too small for this map, so you'll need to stretch it quite a lot.

Looks awesome now! I love how you have the fish too, makes it more realistic. Lolz, sharks in a fishbowl...:D! I rekon this version is better than the rest.
Football is the other face of the world. If you don't like it, then you can get the hell out!

do the soldatens breathe underwater? I agree with making it crystal like.
