nice and simple
Wow! Really nice looking. Love the wood roof cover things made from path. Also love the archway thing over the rapids ride at the base of the rollercoaster. Awesome job
you're killing me man
that pass under the wooden coaster is hot
still great. Idk about as good as the previous two screens. I think there is too much going on where it becomes in-cohesive at times.
Asian themes in NCSO seem kinda tough - I'm eager to see the full area. Love the rapids and the waterfall near the chairlift.
bro yesss
Absolutely phenomenal. The details, the composition, the framing, the colors, the elevation. It's got it all. I love that waterfall.
Beautiful scene. Love the pass under the supports, and the waterfall. So cool. Can really picture being on that rapids ride.
Amazing. The composition is so good here.
I guess I'm the odd one out here, but compared to the other 5 screens you've posted from this project, I don't really feel this has the atmosphere you've created in other areas of the park. Composition might be good, but it's missing the alex flair for park making, you push rct to places it's never been before. It feels like this is a typical ncso screenshot. I can't necessarily tell you what you need to change, because you usually build in such an amazing, unconventional manner. You think outside the box that I build inside.
That being said, not everything you build needs to be mind blowing either. 
this motherfucker makes me want to play rct
Looks amazing. One little thing that sort of bugs me is how the RMC's structure dominates over the water - mostly near the base of the turn where the supports block a lot of the view of the river front. Maybe something like an arched support structure over the water? A similar thing with the supports over the small 'gate' for the rapids. Perhaps the gate should be a bit taller? Minor thing, because otherwise it is immaculate.
Everything is great, except for the saturated green wooden objects on the some of the buildings, color just looks awful in most situations to me, I think you can do better.
Thanks for the comments and feedback everyone
@BSG: you're probably right - it's a bit of an in-between space whereas the other screens are showing scenes which are more at the 'heart' of areas.. but I liked some of the interactions
@Dirt: Thats a good suggestion with making the gates a bit bigger. I don't know if the waterfront can/should be made more visible though.
Here is a reverse angle to help get an idea of the space, because it's a bit confusing with the elevation I think:
This looks dope, alex.
Love the colors.
Bottom half looks great. One of the best NCSO waterfall schemes I've seen. All of the landscaping comes together flawlessly.
I'm not really sold on China. You're using the same walls and roofs as Rome with a few slight variations and some pagodas thrown in. It looks as if the Chinese had to begrudgingly share materials with the Romans. You could easily make it more distinctively Chinese by changing the roofs to something other than generic tan and replacing those Roman walls with something more textured. The colored accents are great, but you could go further with the rich color choices. Unless the area is called "Wei Tu Tan Village", you don't have to play it safe with the colors and objects.
