Looks nice, but there's a few things I don't like.
1) The red and white awning at the back. Too high, and strong colours. Draws the eyes away from the main bulk of the screen.
2) Flowers and bushes on the roofs, doesn't look great.
3) I don't like the land texture under the path, it's a bit...blah. Something with more texture or colour?
4) Too many windows are filled with the latice fences... It looses the novelty after a while.
5) The flowers are slightly too random to be orderly, and slightly too orderly to be random. They're somewhere in the middle right now, and a little touching up here and there wouldn't hurt. Hope you understood that, because i'm not sure I did myself...
Most of it is absolutely wonderful, but it just needs that finishing off in places. Please catch me on AIM just before you send this in. -

That is by far, the best screen that you have shown and the best screen that I have seen from anyone for a very long time. It just oozes beauty in every possible way. The foliage, the architecture and everything else in that screen is just incredible. I can't wait for this to be finished and this should at least get runner-up. -

Very nice stuff Chris.
I love the nice color tones in the buldings. Foilage is excellent... no complaints.
Like others have mentioned, the lattice in the windows might be overdone a bit. Other than that, I really love this. -

A very nice screen, but here are some of my suggestions:
1. Landtypes under the path (as turtle mentioned) don't look right. I would say grassy mud would be the best here, based on the amount of foliage.
2. The colors drift a little too much for me. I think its mainly those tall canvas roofs in the back that throw me off. I'm also not sure about those pink/white doors and the yellow used as accent (not the lamps or windows)
3. I also agree with turtle about the latice fences being over-used to fill the arches. You might play with some other textures in those spaces to increase some interest....
4. Theres a little too much "checkering" with the flower bed placement. Maybe organize them a little to reduce the scatter.
5. I personally don't mind the foliage up on the architecture, but I would keep the flowers at ground level.
My favorite part of this screens is that balcony seating area next to the waterfall...very nice...
