Pics - try some various textures for the steps and watch your texture alignment. Also, it needs more lighting. The architecture looks pretty good so try some texture lighting in different areas and see what kind of shadows you can create.
General Mapping - if you're just starting out, don't try to create a masterpiece right out of the box. Try to build an idea. If it doesn't work, try another.
Good luck, keep up the good work.
Look out for those windows, don't forget we've got wallclimbers in this mod.
/me finds a cold corner and sits by it shivering and mumbeling stuff about how good every1 else is with worldcraft while he is only able to make a square room with light and nothing more <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo-->

Anyway. To the point. As far a criticism goes... Again, I'd work on the texturing. Maybe find a texture with less of a design on it for the arches.
Archecture looks cool but the texturing looks a bit haphazard. Otherwise, you have far outdone me in the first map department.

Unless it's near the marin start.
1.Architecture is really great I liek it all (except for the upper stair in the first pic has a wierd chape and doesn't fit in i think)
2.You need to work on the textures
3.You need to work on the lightning
Especially the lightning is important as they can make or break a map in NS.
then i would take like 30 pics, make em into 30 post`s
and name the topic "ns_hitman"
then i would make another topic called "ns_hitman, a closer look"
and have 5 zoom version pictures, which would make (30x5)
150 posts!
then i would make it five times in every section! twice!
then i would have had a count of around a thousand posts...
oh, i whis i knew how to map...
but, seriously, nice work, keep it up <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
Very nice work, especially for a first map. I look forward to seeing how your work evolves!
