also it's literally the frontier, why there is so much concrete.
I almost commented the same thing, but I talked myself out of it on the basis of: A real park would never have true "frontier" paths, like dirt for example, because it would be too damn hard to maintain and terrible when it rains.
don't you have a car ride like that in literally every park you've ever built?

You need to grasp what "literally" means. Even if he did have a car ride in every one of his parks (which he doesn't) is it so out of the realm of possibilities for a realistic builder to include them in a park that warrants it?
And its also not "literally" the frontier. Its based on it. If this is his interpretation of it, then so be it. If I remember, this park is based off a real one, and a good chunk of it is meant to be kind of "cheap" or what have you (I think). Maybe try and be a little constructive?
Rusty, I think this looks great, man. I actually don't have many suggestions in the way of improvements. Maybe a little water feature inside the turn of the mine train? Either way, keep it up, dude!
Okay, g force, i just think that you always use concrete path with your themes and it would be exciting to do something more daring! i just think you keep limiting yourself, idk. and that the car ride isn't paticularly exciting, sorta just moving around empty grasslands, maybe some garden work to make it more interesting?
The edges of the car ride could use some smoothing out. The rest of it looks great. I get a solid "Cheap" feel from the architecture, but combined with the path it seems like that's intended.
Thanks guys. I'm not going to change the path, as I've said earlier I'm kinda suck of every park just using 10 different path types to help achieved an atmosphere. So for this park I really wanted to only use the paths the park might use in real life.
Love the realistic facades. They hit the frontier theme well without being too over-the-top western.
Little realism touches like that dumpster in the service access area behind those buildings are especially nice.
I like the track for the car ride, but the curved track really makes the angled paths underneath it stand out. It could look pretty sweet if you can find a good way to make those paths curved as well.
One thing I'll probably be in the minority on is the foliage. It looks great as-is but I'd be curious to see if it would look a little less busy with one or two fewer tree types.

Rest looks good. The red building migth benefit from another bit of trim though.

Russ building buildings that are actually to scale? Blasphemy.
Looks great. Can't wait to see actual theming from you someday.

Incredible. Might be my favorite screen of you. Everything is so clean and atmospheric. Archy is awesome. The rides are just perfect.
