Very nice. I think the floor is too clean (you can even see
highlights/reflection from the door bars). Kinda minor complaint given the
overall quality :-)

Nice textures, but the red bricks look a little regular and the plaster's
perhaps a bit thick. I think the scene could use more contrast, so the light
gets brighter and the room darker. The position the man's in really sells
the scene for me. Is that a plate of food on the floor in front of him? It's
not obvious.
Nice image overall. I like the concept too, quite novel.

Very nice. I especially like the left and middle wall - they are very
close to realistically crumbled wall. When it comes improvements, the
man is, while being very realistic as model and position, quite plastic
in textures.
I'd also make the the floor and maybe the right wall a little more dirty
and weathered, and use area light to blur the edges of the light a bit.
Now it looks like there was some really bright and close artificial
light pointing downwards. And possibly make the scene a little bit
darker - now it is quite clearly lit, but I can't see what is the source
of the light. Have you used radiosity? I'd use radiosity, no ambient and
only the two lights we can already see.

very impressive - tho i think the back back and left walls are 2 smooth -
maybe reuse the textures to add a slight bump, and maybe a touch of contrast
tweaking - oh, and a puddle (sorry but its mandatory)

I believe that's just the light shining in from the hallway, not a
reflection. It is a bit distracting though...

I rather like it.
The image is very unusual. The man has the posture of a prisoner, but
looks more like someone who's here unexpectedly. Who is he? Why is he in
prison?
It looks to me more like a metaphor for loss than a real prison scene,
as if the man has just learned of a death of a loved one, and feels
completely lost and alone.
Very interesting! Don't change anything about the man!

Very impressive. I've tried to do a similar wall texture in the past
but never came to close to what you have here.
Obligatory nitpicks:
- As others have mentioned, the floor is waaaaaaaay too clean.
- Why is the "upstairs room" black? If light is coming from it, it
should be a lot brighter.
Just my 1.36 cents (at the current rates)

If you're refering to the Canada/U.S. exchange rate, I believe you mean 1.58
(*ouch*). As a Canadian student going to school in the states, I'm pretty
sure about that. :-(

Um.. Isn't that good? 0.79 Can->US as opposed to 0.565 when I got back a week
ago. That means the Canadian dollar got stronger. Of course, I did notice stuff
seems cheaper in Canada, taking into account the exchange.
