I really like what I see so far, I feel you should maybe change one of those grey roofs to a different roof type or color. Like the coasters station roof is fine, but the gift shop or maintenance bay/transfer track roof could be changed. The barn roof I feel should be white. I live in Kenfucky and most of the barns here are either white roofs or brown, the newer ones are metal grey, although they're not cute. If it's the 70's that barn should be wooden not metal imo.
You named the screen after the coaster, but it's hardly visible in the screen.
I like the barn, and the backstage/roof stuff looks great.
I think this further emphasises your style transition. Which is lovely. It's nice to see now that you've got your own style and that makes me enjoy your work so much more, you keep getting better and better, and I'm really looking forward to this.
You started off with a Pac-copy style that has slowly moved into a more Airtime-ish feel. Its been great to watch you break away from that Pacificoaster realism, into the more grittier stuff.
Well done. Lovely screen.
So nice. I like how you did the roofs of the buildings on the right, that's really great.
There's something that weirdly brings my attention to the corner with the transfer track. I think there's something too bright by here.
Great vibe, could be real.
Looking forward to more!
@Slay - Thanks! As for the Barn, you have to remember that this is a "theme" park barn, not a real barn... so its not going to be completely accurate to something on a real farm. In this case the barn was built in a newer addition to the park, hence the grey metal roofs.
@ITM - Sorry, I didn't really know what to name this screen so I just put the name of the coaster. Thanks though!
@Louis! - That's kind of what I've been aiming for here, a style that isn't directly derivative of a Pac and is instead a bit more realistic and gritty. Glad you've noticed the changes!
@Julow - I'll try to keep that in mind, perhaps with full context in the final version it won't be quite as distracting.
@Fred - Thanks! I'm aiming for a more photo realistic style so thats good to hear.
@CC9 - If you like the greenspaces you'll definitely enjoy the rest of the park!
@chemist - That might be due to the angle a bit, there is quite a lot of grey from this view. But I do realize that changing the path types would fix this but I'm trying to keep from using a bunch of different paths just to add color and a different atmosphere. So many parks now do that to easily add atmosphere, that its gotten sort of annoying to me.
@][22 - Thanks! I'm trying to push those sort of details in this park so good to hear its coming through.
2 Thumbs Up!!!!
Looks good, as per usual. Though, I'm not sure how 'Excalibur' the setting is.
