the metal should be fine with a proper spec map, i dont think you need those big scratches in the defuse though, the major thing is as ferret said the handle, i think its mainly the color thats not doing it justice, try going for a darker green, and removing some of the hard "white" highlights
nice stuff keep going 
great set eve,
cant wait for you new one 
then you should really concider the size of your rooms, have nice props which you do! and i like the mood, but from the screens you seem to be forgetting about gameplay, small narrow halway, doesnt go well with gameplay.
i like the style and mood, just feels way to tight
EV is very nice and cool ( I get a penny everytime I say something nice ;} )
ev is our art-director :} cool guy

big version
final of my painting I've been working on and off for the past 2 months
abit killzone inspired but also the harse color contrast of sincity i guess
i know its abit "rough" but that was the style i was going for
coments appreciated ofcourse
looks real nice sofar, i recon the feet feel to large, but yeh early stage as you said like to see more!!
Still going on with this, better/worse now? Made plates more random shaped and also added some grass/moss and made it to tile better (which still needs some work).[Blocked Image: http://www.kolumbus.fi/lindqvist.mika/textures/floor01_b4.jpg]
nice sofar, i would reduce the contrast abit, and remove some of the grain. also it seems it can use abit more of that moss,
the dirt and the shadwos in between the tiles is 2 dark i would go for something lighter to reduce the feeling theres huge gabs between the tiles
unless thats the style you wanna go for
thats truely horrible, petition signed.
