That looks pretty cool! I'd recommend putting a request out for custom skybox textures matching your current skybox but in the tf2 style, it would really tie the map together.

Visually, that map looks great. A few pointers, however:
The skybox, though it looks very nice, looks too realistic for tf2's painterly style. You should request (or make) a version of that same thing, but with a much more painted look, like the other skyboxes. You also seem to have used a few HL2 textures in the last screenshot. To filter the material browser to only include tf2 textures, type "tf" into the keywords bar. You should be able to find a good equivalent to the window textures you've used there.
Have you tested this, by the way?

Regarding the HL2 windows - I didn't find any windows from TF2's textures that suited those buildings well, so I used those on purpose. They are also packed in the BSP so that people without HL2 downloaded can still see them.
As for the testing - it was actually tested on an IMP last night, it went pretty well. Some people liked it, some didn't. A lot of things about this map don't exactly follow established knowledge about balancing in an attempt to have a unique play style.

I've logged this as an MIA map for now and will keep an eye out for it whenever I'm searching through FDLs and the like; What would really help is if anyone who sees this checks through their old storage drives, if they have any. A lot of maps can be found there that we can't find in the modern day. This map is sadly not available at rotabland.eu or the Mevl2 archives, so good luck!!
