Pro Tour 4. When the elite battle, who will come out on top?
Prelim #1 - Best Entrance
Cocoa - Los Sueños Gardens
Scores:
Liampie: 85% | Six Frags: 85% | Kumba: 85% | Cedarpoint6: 90% | Loopy: 85% | Pacificoaster: 90%
Turtle: 90% | Louis: 90% | AvanineCommuter: 90% | 5dave: 80% | Steve: 90% | Milo: 85%
What the Judges Say:
"Nicely themed and clearly finished. The entrance itself is technically not correct as it misses turnstyles (I guess the building on the left has all the services)...I really like the little pond in front of the entrance and the pavilion on the left. Best entrance for me personally."
-Six Frags
"This was stunning! I loved the inspiration that it took from Balboa Park. The architecture was gorgeous. I really loved the curved peach structure outisde of the park. Same with the glass structure by the creek. All around fantastic work and my favorite for round 1."
-Pacificoaster
"A full park like this would be incredible. Lovely atmosphere and so clean."
-Turtle
"Really great work, extremely high quality, full of atmosphere, only complaint was it was possibly a bit too texture heavy and a little messy in that respect which stopped it scoring higher for me."
-Louis
"Great architecture and fantastic atmosphere. Overall it was the best for me. Pass +"
-AvanineCommuter
"Really loved the details and atmosphere in this one. But also a bit too much for the eye in terms of forms and textures. But still the clear winner of those IMO."

What the Judges Say:
"Very nice architecture all around, but the entrance itself seems poorly done and unfinished, which is the most important part in a best entrance contest."
-Six Frags
"I thought this was very elegant and clean lined. I really admired that architecture and the way the path flowed. Overall this showed a great amount of talent, thus I believe the builder should be qualified."
-Pacificoaster
"Really really interesting, clearly true to a vision and I like that. Deserves a place."
-Turtle
"Full of high quality architecture, whilst it didn't have the same 'entrance feeling' the others had, you can't fault the quality"
-Louis
"Fantastic architecture but felt dead without movement/music. Also the composition was a little iffy for me… it didn't scream "entrance" rather than simply another section of a park. The black entryway also felt forced and out of place. Talented parkmaker, and I want to see more, but this doesn't qualify for me."
-AvanineCommuter
"First I couldn't really find the actual entrance, which isn't a good thing. Looked like an afterthought to an already built mainstreet rather than an entrance. Architecture was nice but entrances should be more about function and structure."

Turtle: 60% | Louis: 80% | AvanineCommuter: 80% | 5dave: 60% | Steve: 75% | Milo: 70%
What the Judges Say:
"I like how finished this seems to be and the entrance itself is realistically constructed, with the turnstyles, ticket sales and services. Big downside for me is the size; there could've been so much more added, like a bathroom, shops, parking area etc.. If you go for realism, then go all the way. I also didn't really like those diagonal tarmac strokes in front of the entrance. Not sure what it's supposed to be.."
-Six Frags
"Although this was a bit monochromatic, I like the realistic structure of the entrance gate and the attempt to break the grid of rct2. For some reason I really enjoyed the seating and lamp post inside the park and the way it was framed by the brick wall. I can see the potential and hope to see this builder in the future."
-Pacificoaster
"Nice idea but not close enough to the quality i'm looking for to be honest."
-Turtle
"Loved this entrance on first sight. The structure was brilliant, it really felt like a strong entry."
-Louis
"Great skills present, it looks great and I do like the diagonal ticket huts but overall it didn't strike me as engaging or exciting as I'd like. Pass for the quality of what was presented."
-AvanineCommuter
"The layout itself was solid, as was the idea with the diagonal huts facing out of the center. But there's way to little space for a theme park entrance. It felt much to crammed."

What the Judges Say:
"Definately use the music"
-Liampie
"Same as with number 3. Technically it seems fine, but there could've been more added to this entrance. I also didn't really like the windows over windows and the color scheme (even if it's realistic, it could be more aesthetic imo)."
-SixFrags
"This was another stunning prelim entry. The music helped indeed. I just felt transported to this merlin park with its charming atmoshpere. Incrediby cohesive and warm. Loved it."
-Pacificoaster
"Deserves a spot based on quality but I would have liked to have seen more."
-Turtle
"My favourite of the bunch because it really captured the Alton Towers entrance perfectly, like as perfect as you will get. The atmosphere was incredible as the custom music really lifted this. It goes down well with me because i'm always at the park"
-Louis
"Great atmosphere. Simple but believable. Pass."
-AvanineCommuter
"IMO the second best entrance of it. Felt really simple and charming. It was very inviting to me. The music added a lot to it."

Turtle: 70% | Louis: 80% | AvanineCommuter: 65% | 5dave: 65% | Steve: 75% | Milo: 75%
What the Judges Say:
"I like the quantity, but the quality is not on the same level imo. Also technically a bit confusing, as the shop (if that's what it is) is leading right into the park. Bit of a monotone colour scheme with all the brown, white and black roofs. I like the little ponds tho."
-SixFrags
"I admired this submission quite a bit. The architecture wasn't entirely strong but the atmosphere was there for sure. I loved the train bridge and seating area with the red awnings. Furthemore, I enjoyed the terraforming and foliage greatly. Great job."
-Pacificoaster
"Nicely executed, but not enough actual ideas or vision to carry this up to getting a spot."
-Turtle
"Again, really high quality, but lacks the spark to boost it higher. Deserving of the 80% - but not much higher, shows great potential though"
-Louis
"great composition but the architecture was uninspired and monotonous. More attention to detail would push this into qualifying for me."
-AvanineCommuter
"Also a very believable entrance with all the details there. But on the other hand it wasn't as inviting as it should be. More colors and forms would have helped."

What the Judges Say:
"Nice couple of buildings, but clearly unfinished and I'm not sure where the actual entrance is.."
-SixFrags
"There wasn't too much content on this map but what was there was fantastic. The architecture was stunning to me. If there was a full park of this I believe it would be incredible. Easily worthy of being a part of the Finals in my opinion. Kudos."
-Pacificoaster
"Almost the opposite to the last entry, nice vision but not enough or not well executed to carry it."
-Turtle
"I couldn't find the entrance in this, that's the main reason why I voted low for this, the quality also, to me, isn't as high as the other stuff as it is a bit all over the place, it just didn't hit the spot for me."
-Louis
"This was not an entrance for me. The architecture looked like it could be good but overall it doesn't really mesh well for me and was confusing. As a section of a park it could work, but this was not an entrance."
-AvanineCommuter
"While this was very nice and colorful, it didn't really felt like a entrance. It was more like a small corner of a park with shops and a small bottleneck. Too small for a realistic entrance, even too small on the RCT-scale."

What the Judges Say:
"I like how the coaster interacts with the entrance, but the unfinishedness of the entrance itself is a bit of a let-down (roofs missing and the bit after you enter the park)"
-SixFrags
"This was very unique in comparison to the other entries. I could just imagine walking up to the main gate and seeing that cobra roll. Such a cool idea. The architecture was also very neat with its use of monorail. I can see the potential with this park therefore, I believe the builder deserved an 80."
-Pacificoaster
"interesting, but not quite there yet. Would love to see more from this person and for them to get a place."
-Turtle
"Loved the idea here, as well as the structure, just the colours really ruined it for me. It just wasn't outstanding for me."
-Louis
"Great use of monorail track, unique architecture and great color scheme. Interaction with the coaster was done well, but overall it felt like a very awkward entry plaza and the circulation flow just wasn't there. I look forward to more from this creator for sure!"
-AvanineCommuter
"Loved the supporting ideas like the cobra roll implementation (were rides even allowed?) and the monorail station. Plus the entrance structure itself was colorful and interesting. Third place for me."

What the Judges Say:
"Same as with number 5, lotsa quantity, but not as much quality.. Bit of a boring colour scheme with all the brown and dull red, and only used one texture (the brick).. It makes the whole a bit monotonous and boring to look at. I like the idea of an entrance to a train station tho.."
-SixFrags
"The concept for this entrance was very cool but the execution wasn't too good. I really enjoyed the waterfalls on either side of the NE station but there was simply to much blocky/flat/sterile architecture that detracted from the entire composition."
-Pacificoaster
"wow, dream big! but unfortunately not enough quality, and that is what we've been told to base scores on. Interested to see more, though."
-Turtle
"Massive entry, but just not meeting quality for me, still well done on creating an entry, hopefully you'll make more"
-Louis
"Good job for the quantity, the quality was too low for consideration though."
-AvanineCommuter
"I dunno, the structures were much too big for me. Also they felt rather boring. Landscape was nice but also a bit too much. Too over the top for realism & semi realism, too tame for fantasy."

Did not know if we commented they would be added here. I will have something to say next time.
Congrats to Airtime and Cocoa, great work and of course well deserved placement into the finals!
I knew that was FK's entry right away, your style is so strong and recognizable. I know you'll definitely make it into the finals if you keep doing what you're doing.
I was surprised by Shotgun and JJayMForce's entries, both were definitely very impressive.
A little disappointed with Maverix's entry and just a little confused by Fizzix's. I know both of you are fully capable of great work, these two entries didn't do it for me though.
Don't really know Proest's work, but I definitely appreciate the submission. Looking forward to another soon
I did not realize how small-scale we were talking here; I built an entire entry area.
Big congrats to Cocoa and Airtime for qualifying, unlucky to the others, a lot of you came really close.
Great job guys!
I really had no idea who did what. I was really surprised by the quality of those!
To all the others who didn't make it - looking forward to other prelim entries from you!
"MFG"
Agree with the comments on my work, I still like the idea of a train which brings you to the real entrance (based on DisneyWorld Magic Kingdom with the boat and stuff offcourse). But while building I learned that is very difficult to keep such a building interesting, also the deadline made it kinda hard I wanted to make it all more detailed but time you know.
I will definitely build for other premlims, I will fixate more on details and less on scale.
I actually think all the entries show a lot of promise, so don't give up!
Edit: Oh, and thanks to Liam, Louis, and Posix for managing and making an awesome contest, those who did the aerials, and to the judges. It's a really nice looking set up too guys and very nice job.
congrats for everyone who entered, all were great, and especially to cocoa and airtime for getting in
Congratulations to Airtime and Cocoa, not surprised at all! Really nice work by Shotguns?, FK and Maverix as well. Can't wait to see the next one!
Amazing, I think it was just the right amount of stuff and the quality of things was immense of course! I really liked that one cage and the way you used objects for your archy. The foliage was incredible, that was spot on. Also I really think this architectural style is rather new which is always a plus. But I don't think many people doubted you'd make it to be honest.
JJayMForce:
I thought your entrance was great and I might have given it 80%. I feel what really let you down was how little you had. Sure, you had the entrance building, but I think had you added a square or something like that behind the entrance you would've made it. The quality was there, just the quantity didn't cut it for me.
Shotguns:
Wow man, great stuff, would've really thought you'd make it with that. Again though, sooo sooo close, also WHY NO PEEPS/WHY NO MUSIC/WHY NO LIFE? Atmosphere could've been twice as good had there been movement! I thought the archy and everything were incredible. What held it back though is the fact it's really reminiscent of Cocoa's screens from a couple of months ago.
Maverix:
Also really really nice, but I think the backside of that entrance could've used some of the red awnings that the front has. Also same for you, WHY NO MUSIC/LIFE/PEEPS???
Good landscaping overall and a nice composition, I didn't like the archy behind the entrance enough for 80% though.
Airtime:
I liked it but to be honest I thought some of the others simply had bigger/more imaginative stuff, no offence. I think this would've been between 70/75% for me basically because what was there just wasn't all that much and it doesn't seem as creative as I'd have personally liked it to be. The detail level is fascinating though, the colors are awesome and the music adds SO SO much life...life that some of the other entrances needed. Good job, as I said just could've been more interesting rather than something safe.
Fizzix:
Your's seemed unfinished and a little too busy in my opinion. Should've been way bigger and a lot more inviting simply with the layout. The entrance was way too tiny in my opinion and the archy's scale as a whole was too small I'd say. I think you should've concentrated on a clear concept for this prelim. Keep up the work though, maybe other rounds will fit you better!
FK:
That's some awesome and very creative archy, I really liked that. Could've made for a great entrance had the whole composition been as creative as the archy itself. I think you basically took interesting architectural ideas and put them on a boring flat surface with little else to see. The archy was daring but everything else seemed way too safe (not taking the coaster layout into account). I think the Cobra Roll was cool of course but it's not exactly a groundbraking element placement after more than 10 years of NE.
Proest:
I really really really liked yours, the idea is brilliant! I thought it'd be good from the overview and I still think it is after having viewed it ingame. The life, charme, atmosphere, fun factor this has is something most of the other entries can't cope with in my opinion. The layout and creativity level are brilliant, what held this back though was the execution of the archy. I think for today's NE standards this just isn't detailed enough. Stuff like this would definitely get you an NE accolade but not one with 80% or more due to the "underdetailed" (from today's viewpoint) archy. But I really liked it and if you enter more rounds and use the same level of imagination I'm sure your name will be a lot more popular soon.
It makes the park reading that readme even better! Great job cocoa, undoubtedly the best this round and I'm sure you will do well in the main contest! Gratz (also to airtime!)
I'm surprised by shotguns. I really loved the architecture in there and didn't expect you to have made it (as I'm a bit unfamiliar with your work). I'm sure you'll nail the architecture round!
I expected a bit more from maverix tho.. He really is on fire lately and that entrance isn't really in the same league quality wise as what I've seen recently from him..
Surprised by Jjaymforce and proest.. With a little more polished work I can see you doing well in future rounds.
@ ][ntamin; I also was surprised by the small scale these entrances were. It made it hard to judge them for me personally. I think it has a lot to do with small amount of time they had to construct it. For the time they were given I think they did well tho!
Really nice, you two.
I should probably explain how mine wasn't a traditional park entrance by any means, its supposed to be this once abandoned but gentrified area of paris and decided to make a little city park out of that, the composition was purposely made like that.
But I think it could have benefited from even just two or three more tiles all the way around. The only thing that really bothered me about it was how you left the space under the paths visible. Other than that it was really clean and well done
Really liked Coco and Airtime's too, congrats on getting through
