Hey! Here's some screenshots of my maps. Nothing special, but still.

Looks pretty good! Better than most other Workshop maps at least.
I'd only consider working on your visibility and drawing the player's eye correctly. Some of them, especially your last few, are very "noisy" and don't have a very obvious focal point with everything going on. You'll want to try and draw their eyes to things more elegantly, and make better use of contrast. Otherwise nice work!
(Also please make your spotlights from the light arrays instances bigger. Those tiny spotlights are a sin from Valve. It's a nice touch and goes a long way.)

Thank you so much, Stract! I really appreciate it!
(Btw, I am a big fan of your work. Can't wait to play your upcoming mod!)

Aha, Gotcha! Thanks for telling me about this. I will make some corrections. Thank you once again!
Working on a destroyed theme for once.
It's released now but I'm always trying to fix bugs. You can find the current version here: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=920594819
