Seems to be a good start as I can see ;)

Just some visual suggestions :

You might change the settings of your stained glass window's projectors inside the church, try to make it more translucent (I mean the effect is a bit "too much") and I'm not shure they have to project until the other side, it would be more "realistic" :

And try to find another tiles texture on the ground inside, more large and "creepy" according to the style of the map.

I hope it can help to increase the visual until I test the gameplay ;)

A last tip :
The wood table and chairs are cool but, don't forget the finality of your works : you will probably want to play a DM on it (and us too!) so try to put your decors stuffs as they do not prevent the fluidity of the player's movements inside your map (in this case seems to have enough place over them but keep that in mind if you project to put others kind of stuffs inside).

look really nice ...just a personnal feeling....the outside ground color & the size of the blocks is not according to the church and is "hurting "my eyes....
here on pict(i promise ill post in largest size my picts next time haha^^)in the column :the blocks are not "crossed" and u repeat the "mistake" 4 time on same one ;).....in a church or a castel that never happen..too loud structures...and often perfection objectives...

I reckon replace the outside tiles with terrain. Have something like paths running amongst grassy areas etc..

What do you guys think of the interior of the church? Its a little bare. You guys think I should add a couple busted pews?

when u built anything (in real life) with blocks it s in use to cross the blocks ,so joints or jointures are not in the same "z" axe on 2 superposed levels...it solidify the built....i ve built some walls in real life ...it s just in front of my eyes when i watch ur picts so i point it....not really important in a game....there ur church is not going to collapse! ;)

Hehehe i agree with the Hexen call, looks like its gunna be an interesting map. Listen to lord_porksword about the terrain i reckon, even if you only have it outside of the wall that acts like a fence. (lowered area)

I would so much like to see that lighting effect used alot more. If I can work out how its done i'd love to set up a Necris themed map with windows that the sunlight shines though onto the stones and running nanoblack flowing about.
