Well well well...I'm always not sure 
For sure the snow could be more original but with snow I haven't all the models I wanted to create a true snowy ambient. I think I'll continue with what I have now BUT I don't exclude any change later
Thanks for your advices!!

I think I like the summer version better, but I'm not sure.
Maybe you could do a summer meets winter theme?
Like with the Blue part being the colder part of the map with still a lot of snow from the winter, and the Red part with a more passed over into summer feel.
I witnessed this strange scenario on a vacation in Norway once... it was really beautiful.

Yeah, playable areas look ok for the most part. A good rule of thumb: When lighting your map ensure that player team colors are easily distinguishable. One of the keys to gameplay in TF2 is visually identifying friend/foe and class.
It actually looks like you've got some nice detailing going on. Even though you're probably within the realm of safety as far as gameplay is concerned, you may want to consider brightening things up just a tad so your work can be appreciated. Judging by how big and bright the moon appears to be in your first screenie I think you could cast some relatively bright moonlight around and create some nice contrasting areas of light and shadow to highlight your architecture.

Wow, I like what I see. I love the way you're using the treecard and tree models!

Hey,
I come back...I was busy these last days but I worked on the lighting and...again...transform the map in a snowy night theme! Ahaha ^^
I think I can say now that I have what I want. Is it much brighter now?
Are these white trees seems good and not too unrealistic (I hope not)?
And...please don't tell me you don't like the snow xD

Hey !! I'm not dead ^^ Just busy with works, wife, friends and other things...the life!
Well, to answer at what you said Re1wind, I'll use more warm lights into the red base...I look forward about a cold atmosphere in all the map except for the red team to show the difference and a contrast between the two camps. Middle is more like a neutral area where the red's begin their implementation. I don't know if you see what I try to do.
About the road Draco, I worked it and it looks much better now Thanks. It's not finish again (you'll see in the screens under my text) but the place where you gave me your critic has been reworked
So now, some new screens...as usual it's a W.I.P. and it's just some screens of an area...so you'll have be patient to see the rest...
(I have to concentrate my time on this contest! GO GO GO!!)

Gotta confess, was kinda sceptical throughout your progress but these last screenshots really improved your idea. I really like that !
I just think the lighting is something you could play around with. Some more contrast/lighter areas would do the map benefit, imo.
I really hope you'll go the extramile

Well I continue with some new screens...I have to work much quickly, the end is near!!
So here, you'll certainly find that my roofs are poor with snow and it's normal, it's just textured now! I'll make a model as Valve did for koth_viaduc if I have the time. If not I'll put some displacements.
For the rest, as usual it's in W.I.P. (mostly in B)
Hope you like it!

But...is it always too dark? I mean...do you think I should improve my ambient lighting?
