let me preface this by saying that walt has shown he is to be trusted as far as his vision for a project goes, and this will definitely end up  being amazing regardless of what we all say. 

my issue with the rockwork is that there are quite inorganic shapes of intense rock shapes, that abruptly end and transition to grass or path or whatever. this ends up feeling artificial, and the repetition of shapes contrasted with the empty space around it draws the eye to the rocks, rather than the coaster. 

now, i don't know the subject matter here, or what he's going for - that might be the whole point, or it might be a real life thing that's very carefully recreated. it's just not my personal preference, i'd prefer it to look a bit more organic.

beautiful, with enough little touches to turn a pretty straightforward theme park scene into one that feels alive, some great choices. 

the rocks look a little geometric (not sure if this might be the point though) - interesting can't wait to see more

it's such a lovely idea, this, and the execution is absolutely great. elevating it while staying true to the original is a very good skill.

this result is pretty much exactly how i had it in my head, commiserations on 2nd and 3rd it was a really close one though. looking forward to seeing what you're cooking for finals.
