Rest of map album

My brain is wired in a weird way that whenever someone says Antarctic research base, it has to look like The Thing otherwise it won't compute.

I really like this shot, especially the little stone bridge you used to run on as a kid! However, I really think you should add a dividing line alongside the beach. I'm not good at photobashing but gave it a try to show what I mean. Maybe not as prominent as I made it but I think you get the point

That's actually what I initially planned but I sucked at designing a layout conducive to csgo (had to wall off a lot of open ground without making it feel constricted)

Ended up going with the south pole's research station. Its elevated base and underground tunnels/dome gave a lot of easy ways to "wall off" routes:

Still planning on small easter egg references like the coil/petri dish and outpost 31 though

C'mon dude, smooth that transition between the ground and the snow wall.

Subdivide the shit out of that map

I can understand that. The easter eggs are a good idea, you could do many without it feeling out of place.

Finally finished the kitchen counter! so many little pieces.

Some WIPS for the second map of my HL2EP2 Mod Aurora: Reinstated.

Feedback on lighting is more than welcome if someone feels something isn't right or have some general tips!

Looking good!

I should hang the lights in the first screen closer to the ceiling (and maybe not that close to the walls).

It feels when walking there you will bump your head against it.

And on the last screenshots there could be a another ceiling light more in the back of the room.

But besides these two things it looks nice!

Really digging the huge skylight dome you have here! Adds a lot of interest to the area in terms of geometry and lighting. Starting to wish Portal 2 took place on the surface!

Beautiful contrast and stunning reflections! What engine is this developed in?

Hey, thank you! I just saw thanks to you pointing it out that i haven't attached the lamps to the actual ceiling in the first screen..

I didn't noticed they weren't attached to the ceiling But yea u should fix that haha. I ment that the wires of the lamps are too long so the lamps are hanging too low in my opinion

Maybe I will finally finish my first map. I'm not sure about the theme tho.

Pretty early screenshot of the project I'm remaking right now.

Guess what it is? Correct, Train 2

I mean... Riverside.
