Nice detail in the debris etc, but those shadows just don't look right at all.

They're angled too well, it seems like they're shadowing objects that aren't there, the lighting angle should be adjusted a little to make the shadows look less snapped-to-a-grid

I thought the same thing, before I found out the light source. The light is backroung left, pointing about 45 degrees onto the grated platform, looking from that angle, the shadows are actually spot on.

Perspective is a bitch.

The shadows ARE wrong.
essentially the position of the light does not relate to the position od the shadows. According to the shadows the light source should be further back against the left wall, but that would place it inside the curved wall section. - it has possibly been moved since the shadow positions were generated ?
