Brushwork is a bit cluttered for my taste, but shows promise. Lighting is too bland and uniform.
Worst thing is those default textures though, go forth and find something a bit nicer and it'll lift the whole thing.
Improve your skills with Source, not with old half life.
The map itself looks messed up.

Nothing wrong with improving your skills with old HL, imo.
Map shows promise, but there's still a lot to be done (see Schmung's post).
i like it.
Mmm i like oldschool style. The map looks good but add some stronger colours. And the red beam thing.. Maybe make something around it (some elecrtic shit) so it seems more logical that its there.
Nexus, whats up with you saying what other ppl should do? I think we are all capeble of choosing our own ways here..
I clicked this link before seeing who made the thread, but the picture really gave away that it was you 
You really do love giant air ducts don't you! The steam coming out the vent in the first shot is much to small, scale it up to make it more suiting to the size of the vent.
I really don't like this to be honest. It's just that things don't match. Architecture is ok, but the texturing just doesn't make sense.
got a link to the contest? id like to see it.
Your lighting needs better value contrast, as its very bland with little or no shadows. Lighting fixtures in vents? I like your little lit icon thing, it was nice.
Are you only allowed to use halflife base textures?
holy hell 500 wpoly? Come on, man, no one has a geforce fx 18.00 anymore
sometimes its pretty good practice to try and make something look good with as few polys as possible. However, the pics you've shown still look rather undetailed for 500 polys, but okay.
Also when you've work with simple geometry then lighting is your friend, you can make a box room seem extremely detailed with the right tone of lighting.
Rather wooish if I do say so myself. Love the new look - may be low detail, but it's got a really strong visual motif to it - the walls evoke combine architecture a little. Definately has the look of an old-school DM map, great job.
