    nice mapping <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    only thing which strikes me odd is the 2nd shot. The pilar on the left, it looks kind of flat/blends to much in the background due to the texture being used, could be the angle the shot was taken...

    [edit] I didn't see the last shot while posting so here goes:
    I spy with my little eye a miss-aligned wall texture (left wall) <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I keep looking but don't see anything wrong with the second shot, even with funny angles <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Oh and the green computer textures around the CC are an incredible eyesore that don't fit the map at ALL!

    It looks nice, maybe try and spice up the architecture in some of the hallways/rooms

    The room in the first shot also looks a bit bare, like a room of hell for aliens!

    Also, the hive rooms need infestation, and i mean need!

    Simple yet effective. Neat style. Kouji pointed out a nice point, try and rectify that.

    Too long corridors, you should add some twists'n'turns and maybe breaking up the floor and ceiling a bit. ^__^

    just some friendly suggestions.

    that marine start isn't too open imho. but what isn't right is that the rt and cc are in the middle of it. it shouldn't be so. i suggest you rearrange them so that they are nearer to either exit, like in ns_metal.

    and that hive is screaming for infestation <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I'd add a bit more stuff to the corridors, they look a bit empty and not very good for skulks, yet. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo--> what about adding some worldmodels? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    /me thinks the first few have too many colours, a bit like SubSpace in Veil. But the rest is good.

    Now that would add a new dimension of fear.

    Time for more pics! Should be 4 in this batch.

    Cargo Hive:

    The Cargo Hive from the bottom... The lights kind of stand out, but there's no overlay for them in the texture set :/ A problem for later, I guess.

    A corridor right outside the Cargo Hive... The terrain outside the window is roughly done right now... it'll look real when it's finished, honest!

    2 for one shot here: The map layout on top of the newly infested Smelter Hive. People told me to infest it, and it just never dawned on me that it wasn't infested yet. Sometimes I see my map the way it is in my mind rather than what it actually looks like...

    Notably absent in the layout is the top hive and the vent system.

    Those pillars look out of sync with the over all area, add some more to them to define them and also mesh them into the design.

    Looking good, only that walkway with the red light comming out of the window reminds me of co_dawn.

    On the second to last shot in the above "showcase" of pictures, you should add more orange light. Would probably look neat, and enough is not being given off.
