Agreed.I love how fun this screen is,
The screen is lacking in one accent color of some type, whether that would be in the architecture or in the flowers, I don't know....But the red is just a little overwhelming IMO. I've also never been a fan of the brick arches being used in that manner; it makes the building seem hollow to me. The statue does look a little out of place. Otherwise, extremely pleasant and "fun". Keep up the awesome work X. -

I agree the red is a bit overwelming but I rather like it. If you wanted to really do wonders though change the flowers to those colorable-distorted ones that Toon made and make them light blue.
That's still a beautiful screen man...

Its certainly different, in a way.
The dark red fence around the seating area -at first- looked awful, but I'm actually liking it more and more as I look at it. The tower with the onion shaped thingy on top needs another window, its a bit plain on one side. The Egyptian rocky things in the bottom left need to go. And, the custom statue doesn't look too good either.
On to the stuff I like, I really like the crowdiness of it, the tree's everywhere give off quite a cosy feel. The use of mushrooms, cannons, bones etc give it a cool fantasy feel, and the tree selection is nice.
Good job.

I really like it, I think you've hit a theme which suits your style very well. I'd keep the statue, I think it looks nice. Loving the fences on the mini golf! The only thing i'd do is to lose the mushroom on the roof. And the tree selection, while filling the space very well, seems a bit diverse... -

Turkish Delight Factory
Within the 'Persian Gates' area, previously known as 'Arabian Village', is a huge pink building where Turkish Delight is made by umpa-lumpas daily. Tours are every half-hour and the end of the tour concludes with a taste test of different types of Turkish delight, if thats possible... btw- i hate pink.

Park is at 23% altogether.

It's a good idea and the actual design of the building is great. But the colours are eye-shattering. I understand that the colour is that of a turkish delight, but I think it may look much better with a more toned down shade of pink.
Oh, and the fences out front are ugly too. Oh, and where do the waterfalls end? Do they just disappear at the bottom?

Personally I like it as is. The folidge and pathing is neutral enough to keep the building from being completely overpowering. You could probably change some more of it to the brown though if you think it's too much.

You might want to make a small section of water go under the path, just so the waterfalls actually go somewhere. Although it would be weird having the pink turn to blue so quickly...
In anycase, excellent buidling design. Not sure on the colors though... They're not overpowering, but at the same time... Bah, I don't know. -

Other than it looking more like a castle rather than a factory, I love it. the colors and foliage are the best aspects.... -

Its very nice, the colours work well and it seems to be pulled off very nicely.
Cant wait to see more. -

LOL, nice, mixing 'turkish delight' (the lion, the witch and the wardrobe) with umpa-lumpas (willy wonka) LOL.
The screen isn't half bad either. -

i don't really like it. but part of that has to be because I hate when people use a lot of custom scenery. also, a lot of those scenery pieces serve no purpose, even architecturally (is that even a fucking word). pink water? small gears stacked on top of each other? your foliage is improving though. good job, x250, good job. -

I love it, well not really the screen itself (witch is great btw) but you are makeing a building that serves a really neat propose with the idea behind it and that sure beats a building with nothing more to it then scenery.
So yeah the screen alones great, just not super amazing or anything. It mite sound crazy but I think adding more bright colors mite make it look better, as of now it seems to have to few colors per object or something.
Keep it up, im quickly being comeing a fan of yours and regreating tradeing you -

I don't really like the pink. Something about it. Maybe take it out or put in another color to supplement it. I don't know. And the waterfalls need to go somewhere as others have mentioned. But the structure itself looks nice. -

I would like it more if you used the brighter pink to coincide with the brown......but then again....what the hell do I know? -

I'm loving that pink. The building is great and it's my favourite screen from you so far. Looks very JKay IMO. Well done. -

While the building structure is pretty good, the mix of that brown and pink just don't work well together. Try cutting back on the pink and brown just a little bit, maybe change that brown to a dull brown or tan, and maybe reorginize them. Try to stick to 1 or 2 types of pink as well.
Other than that, nice work. I can see this park actully having a chance at winning Runner-up or higher.
Edit: As for the waterfalls, I think there cool. Just make sure you have a water source for them and unless your ending can be seen, make sure your waterfalls drop into a hole like that top left one. That way you can say they are going into underground pipes or somthing like that. -

The Irish Coffee Cafe'
Located near the entrance of the park, this Irish coffee shop is aimed for the adults who's intentions steer clear of riding huge 200ft rollercoasters and thrilling rides, but for those who like to relax whilst in the park. Visitors can sit back, relax, and enjoy the parks world-renowned Irish coffee whilst looking out across the beautiful central lake.
New for 2005, the sitting area now includes umbrellas...
Look out for this park about August time, it is around 65% complete at the moment.
