I think the trees work very well actually. What doesn't work is the darker coloured architecture. You need something soft to complement the pastel coloured trees, not a large surface of harsh red! But regardless I think it's a beautifully laid out area. This project is so easily the best thing youve ever done..
I love the colors of the trees. I think the shape might be able to be improved, but I can see that also being difficult/impossible in LL. I think the roof could be improved with a peak, and perhaps a bit less solid red, as liam suggested.
That said, I love the curved walls, the towers, the bobsled awnings, the arches, it's all gorgeous!
Can you add color differences in the trees by making some of the flowers a bit underwatered? To give the idea of shade / difference in height. That may make it look even better.
I dig the trees as well. You could play a little bit more with their shape and perhaps try to add some bushes to them to break the similarity a bit. I like the rest of the screen too.
trees: yes, color can be altered by shifting some flowers to unwatered, but I don't really like the look. Another option is placing appropriately-colored jungle flowers in them, which I've done on other maps. The archy is unlikely to change, but I see the point about the bright trees not matching the darker tone. monorail: might try brown, but I'm not sure it'll work.

I want to like it, but I just find this super chaotic, and wish you would simplify things just a tiny bit and maybe try to hide some of the rough edges (glitchy parts).

i love it all. i think the monorail track is distracting in grey, and if it was a bit more subtle it wouldn't stick out so much.
the rest is beautiful.

Your screen always trigger creative inspiration.
The foliage is sick.

I agree with Liam about the darker architecture.
I agree with Louis about the monorail.
Otherwise man, keep going. I couldn't be more excited for this. Not to mention just how fucking impressive your will to build this massive project is.

Extremely interesting. I think the grey monorail is very important here, it gives an unique feel of depth.
To be honest I don't like the wooden coaster and the custom mine train supports, from this point of view it's very messy.

Serious mix of architecture going on... I see too much happening in a small area... aka, a lot of competition for one screen

I love the verticality of this area, in combination of the trees its a great area.
I do think your horizontal land texture usage could be a bit better, maybe a little too much plain grass for me, but this is minor.

Nice RCTll goodness. I like the trees! I have to agree with Alex though. It is a bit chaotic and glitchy, which is a bid detract from this screen.
The idea is there, ya just need a wee bit more refinement. Keep it up!
