Some little ctf map I'm making. I request comments on layout and look. Shading and stretching not done yet.

The appearance really amazing.  You did a really good job with the 3D effects.  I don't feel that the current scenery background matches with the polygon texture.  I suggest something to match it more.  The layout is rather interesting.  Depending on the size of it, the lower routes could have slight spray-ease, but it isn't a serious problem.  Other than that, I don't see anything else wrong with the layout that may harm the gameplay.

Really is a good map and I look forward to seeing it complete.

I don't know.  Everything just looks messy.  The layout seems mediocre at best; doesn't seem much fun.  Top and bottom routes are very sprayable.  Flag base is interesting, but probably too closed.  Possible ease of spawnkilling.

Change BG colour. To hell with blue.
Added stalactites as little spray blockers.

At the moment my biggest concern is that the whole map will look the same. Add dynamic lighting that interacts with scenery and I think it will be much better.
Looks good though.

Shading's pretty much done. It's freaking hard.. Can't think of any other sceneries, pretty much done for now.

maybe you could open the circle in the center of the map like a horizontal version of this: ( )
the scenery "rubble" seems to fit in this map

The moon looks strange on the left, I suggest you remove it.  Same with the lights.

For scenery, you can try to add scenery like rocks or boulders since the theme is stone.

Moon? You mean sun...

I think the "spray blockers" in some areas are pointless. I think sometimes spray can be strategic in a map. You shouldn't try to completely spray-proof a map. Eh, this is fine though. Looks nice. I don't like the holes in the center of the rings at all. It looks nicer with sharp coloring like in the original versions, not like little dark buttholes :-\.

Changed the sun
DID NOT build up; added "poles"
Tunnels added/polys deleted, then reshaped.

EDIT: In game screenies.
