Marked improvement?
i don't know, right now there's basicly whitewater on the sand, something that you don't see IRL, i'd just go with my idea of the roof textures like in robbies design. also right now thanks to the dirt under the coaster it looks a lot more natural, but i'd an overview of it to really say that, there's not a lot of it shown. also try to mix up the rocks a little. use more than 2 colours and have parts where they're both present. also the tree on the left feels out of place
Looks better! Maybe use some cool colours under the windseeker.
Yeah. Things still left to do here include possibly clustering rocks under the coaster, working a bit more on the foliage around the windseeker, and working on the base of the windseeker, adding a bit of color either by markings or patterns on the ground, changing the fence up a bit, or maybe something else.
I used whitewater instead of roof tiles because they have more degrees of freedom, and they feel more alive. The roof tiles felt dead and bland. The white-water also allows me to transition between types of beach by changes in colors, whereas the roof tiles only have one color that works. There's still time to change it, but I think this was the better choice.
I think it looks a lot better; perhaps a little too much whitewater but the land underneath the coaster does break up the path better than the tarmac.
To be fair, it might not be the worst idea to extend the land around the boardwalk (at least in the area shown) by one tile, that may allow a little more room to work with so the transition is slightly more visible, although it must be said the 'cramped' look is quite nice here (restaurant is fantastic).
Wow, nice improvement. It really does add more character to the place and make it something I can picture myself visiting.
I really like this but I think I agree with Stoksy about there being too much whitewater because if you think about this logically there's no way this park is on the ocean but rather a bay of some kind or protected by a barrier island (Like Coney Island or Kemah Boardwalk).
If the park were on the ocean then it would need to be up on a pier or at least protected by a decent stretch of beach, otherwise it would flood whenever it was windy or high tide and be destroyed every time there was a decent storm.
Because of this I think there would be some minor tides so a few whitewater tiles but not nearly as many as you have now.
Sorry for totally overanalyzing this. You know I love the park. lol
Great stuff! And not so grey anymore! Could still do with a little less path but still, great nonetheless.
Perhaps try to remove some of the concrete under the wooden coaster, break it up with some dark sand & dirt.
I love that little kiosk thing. Was trying to figure out how you made it, pretty clever.
It's supposed to be a shaved ice stall. There's a few in my hometown that pop up at fairs and festivals and such that are in the shape of a cup of shaved ice, so that's where I got the idea from. I wish it would fit centered in a tile though, so I could put an invisible shop inside it.
