Hello MapCore!

I've been lurking here for a while, but I recently registered to post my first map. While I have experimented with hammer in the past, this is my first real attempt at creating a serious map for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. I'm still pretty new to this, so my techniques are most likely bad practice. I know that the brushwork on this map is currently very messy. Anyways, here is the map

While the map has a simple 3-lane design, it is quite vertical with the B side of the map being much lower than the A side of the map. I'm quite happy with the layout and cover around the map, though I've never had more than 5 people play this map at once. A proper playtest will most likely uncover more problems to fix, so I'll probably see into scheduling one for the map here. As for theme, I want to make this map a south pacific Island, with the Terrorists starting on the beach and working their way up the rocky hills. However, due to my overall lack of experience I'm not that great at detailing, so I may have to go with a simpler theme if it proves too hard. I'm hoping not give up, though; it's been my dream to finish a fully detailed map.

 

here is the workshop link for the map http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=518049151 Any feedback is appreciated.
