Current condition of my fail map: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvG5R1t8fP0
Any thoughts?

The are near the final CP (the one near where you put your spray)? Add something evil like a missil silo or a rocket or a laser near it, so it blows up.

source stop that you are drunk

Leave it as is and call it expressionist.

It wasn't even part of the compile, though! I left the game running for a while, and when I came back it was like this.

Maybe it's a graphics card bug. Does it look right when you reload the map again?

 

[Idolon]

Yeah, it's all fixed.

Working on re-detailing:

(From left to right) The orange building on the left I'm keeping; the divider between that and the beige building I'm thinking of recoloring, the middle building is still being finalized (color is probably staying though); divider btw. that and the red building on the right is pretty much final (except for the trims, may change those), the small tall red building may be changed, the last building on the right isn't going to be changed.

I drew over that image with some changes which I think would make that look more interesting.
You might also want to include some guttering - though this, obviously, may be redundant due to the climate.

It looks nice, though. I'm just a little picky how it's clearly many extensions, but only on a few planes.

Unrealistic top which is too heavy? That building on the left looks quite good to me and quite realistic. I have seen a lot of buildings that had top floor bigger then the ones below.

that really looks like a desert themed viaduct. you know the fronts of the buildings you see when you exit the spawn to go to the capture point?

Looks precisely like it. Rail line out the front, wooden platform to one door, sideways door in the middle, the angled building on one side...

dafuq are you saying?

That's not the first time that's happened.

My fault for not checking what I wrote.

Hmm...

I see where you're going with that. Shucks. Darn you, subconscious mind!

The BLU side is nothing like Viaduct, thank god. And overall, the layout isn't much like it either.
I guess that's another thing I'll be thinking about while redecorating RED's side.

I drew cruddy concept sketches for a WWI-inspired Pyro set, my talented friend Constructor is modeling them and my talented distant aquaintance is making really pretty textures. I decided to make myself slightly more useful by making a custom little trench map for the inevitable SFM promos. Here's my progress so far:

 

[Jetti]

You have to make a map out of that.

It brings joy to me, especially with that Revolver Skin. (Download link?)

Also love those Pyro Designs. I like to rock a similar set myself, which features a Green Foster's Facade and a Proof of Purchase. I'd love to rock out with those new weapons with my set!

 

[Deodorant]

I'm afraid the theme wouldn't lend itself very well to gameplay. Narrow corridors surrounded by high ground would be pretty horrible to play in, and the massive amount of proppery would require much better optimizations skills than mine. But thanks!

Here's the Luger mod. That item, too, is modeled by Constructor based on a concept of mine, incidentally.

And yeah, Foster's/PoP is a great combo.

Made the area around the point less cramped:

 

[Idolon]

I would make the building itself bigger; in my experience playing the map I was able to get near to the top of leaderboards by mindlessly spamming the point as a soldier (I also had 500 ping so I couldn't do much else).
