Looks amazing! The one thing I think that could be improved is optimization.

Perhaps change the skybox from d2

Besides that i like what i see so far. Second mid apears a bit boring due to its simplicity.

Exploding trees are a thing!

What ever you do, please don't make it like newke (lots of little things poking out from walls that dont have clipping on them )

Also, adding skylights on the ceiling with the combination of smoke stacks in the background would allow easier smokes and flashes, much like in de_season.

I'd prefer it if you presented screenshots taken from a few meters up, looking down at an area at a slight angle instead

So far the theme looks quite nice, i like the scene showed on your third screenshot the most.

Maybe it's just because of dev textures, but the red tiled floor seems too red, I can imagine the area, already small, feeling very crammed and with reduced player readability. But do your work first, I don't like commenting on these things when it's way early to worry about textures.

I have opened up the pathway outside A main, and also stretched A connector it is now a bit shorter then the cross on de_dust 2.

Also, I started to re-making the entrance to A.

As for the texture on A, I have replaced it with a much lighter texture.

Hello!

De_Barcelia is my first shot at a competitive map, I based the layout on a few maps such as Season, Mirage, and Inferno. As for theme, I set in downtown part of Santa Barbra, California.

Any feedback/criticism is welcome!

I feel like moving ct spawn back to the road because otherwise the Ts only have to watch 2 angles/use a smoke making it difficult to retake. Also try adding skylights to B site, excited to see how this turns out!

I have my greybox almost finished and am starting to detail. I have a idea of what I want to make it look like (santa barbara) Is their anything that I should keep in mine while detailing? (i.e. don't use to much foilage) Thanks!

I played Rainbow Six Seige and I loved the amount of detail that went into the walls. Is their any way to do this with source? I tried func_breakable but that didn't really work that well (having a brush disappear after shot a few times doesn't look to well)

It looks very nice, but for the future try making a greybox map then detail so that if you do mess up somewere you dont have to remake everything, only a few brushes
