  Can you please zoom out more? And maybe put some more effort into your screens before posting.

  Also keep in mind, I am using RCT Classic, so I am limited in my customization options.

  The coaster car on display is my favorite detail. The station roof is also not bad for RCTC trackitecture.

   

  The buildings could be far more detailed, and since you're building with CS already, you could take advantage of some of the more versatile objects like deco trims and slanted rails. It would benefit your work immensely to look through other parks on NE and study the various architectural techniques. 

   

  The entrance does look like a building, albeit simplistic, but the shop building more closely resembles a cardboard box, and doesn't look like much time was put into it. I know for a fact that you can build something better than that.

  Thanks for the advice. I agree with you one the concessions. Been trying to decide how I should design the building

  Yeah guys, with these builds I am just having trouble figuring out how to approach things. As much as i really want to make amazing builds like the ones you guys do, I just have trouble seeing that vision and putting it into the game. I just want a bit of advice to help me better plan what I need to do

  Is there a way you can take screenshots without the UI and at a higher resolution?  It would look a bit better.

  This feels rather drab, unfortunately. It is not helped by the resolution.

   

  You're slowly improving, so keep it up!

  A couple things (imo) that might help in the future:
  
  - Coasters touching the ground are a no-no. It does seem like you're going for realism, so the coasters need to be at least 1 unit above the ground at all times (I'd say two preferably). This keeps any grass or weeds growing into the tracks and causing maintenance issues.

   

  - You need more foliage. Trees are okay, but add some bushes, shrubs, flowers, etc. This will make the park better for sure. Don't just spam them everywhere (like I do, lol), take a look at some others work on this site and try to put them in spots that make sense.

   

  - Your food stall building is really bland and doesn't add much to the park. Since you can't turn off clearance checks in classic, it's going to be hard to fix this. It may be better to just leave the stalls open by themselves rather than cover them with a building. If you want to have a building, make it bigger and more detailed.

   

  -  I don't mind your entrance building, but it needs more polishing and finishing. You're using custom scenery, so you can grab some window pieces, deco panels, trims (what Terry suggested), and use them to spruce up the building a bit. It also would be nice to see more of the building! Zooming out one level should help with the resolution stuff and allow us to see more of your work next time! The trackitecture roof looks good, but you will see on this site that most people layer it with an additional track type, usually virginia reel track or car ride track. Might make it feel a bit more finished and roof-like.

   

  - Your fences along the paths have gates every unit! You can probably find a better fence that looks good and doesn't have a gate like that in each unit of fence.

   

  - I do like the rollercoaster front car outside the station. Seems like something a real amusement park would do. Some fences around it (like the rope and post fence) might help make it look realistic, unless youre going for a "kids can climb all over it" feel, in which case you should put it closer to ground level.

   

  Keep working hard and I hope to see some improvement in the future!
