The pipe in the first wallpaper doesn't look realistic since it should be 3D. The light at the top doesn't look realistic, either. And if the yellow stripe is painted on the wall, make it more transparen or if it's a band it's too near to the wall. It also looks kinda empty.
well they are both wallpapers found probably from etqw.com
I've done the editing and made some aditions (ajninp, I didn't make most of what u mentioned there)
and spree who are you to judge if they are winners or not :PP
watch "ET:QW now on crossfire.nu" a-la-crossfire font :)
2nd: BAD COLORING!!!, nice compo, too little flow, bad blending, the quakewars logo on the bottom loogs ugly on that picture
Both not winners tbh, nice try though ;)
[ hope you enjoyd my english ]
All in all 6 out of 10.
