(Archive) Advertising District / my currect project

hey, watsup everyone. im found this site sometime last summer and decided to try my own thing...

i was goin fer a chinese look and juss wanted to show a lil bit... ignore the lower right corner.

i kno it aint much compared to everybody here but gimme some feedback, good and bad. thx!

oops sorry its so big... hehe its my first time posting pictures and shit

Well, welcome to NE cheEeEEz890. Nice member name dude. I'd love to see you face off with MightyMouse someday.

Anyway, on your screen. Extremely messy and unrefined. It seems you are placing objects just for the sake of it. I mean, what does a gong, some barrels, junkpiles, rowboats, pink trees, cyad bushes, pink flowers and multi-textured temples have in common?....nothing......I'm not trying to be harsh, just honest because it looks like a theming nightmare. But plz, keep at it and show us more.

hmmm yea i see what u mean. its hard to try and critque urself, so thanks fer the comment!

I agree with JKay, except I'd like to point out that pink flowers and pink trees do have something in common.

Welcome friend! I think it has to many colors and should stick with 4 colors for each building so it would look proper.

Could it be? Another Kumba?

yea i kindve put all that random crap in there cause my foliage is horrible (as you can see... lol) so any tips on what to fill it with?

sorry for posting again, but ive been tryna work with the pink kinda cherry blossom theme and came out with this:

it was supposed to be a lighthouse off the coast, but when i was 80% done i realized i had nothing to make a lighthouse light with...

comments? am i improving? or is this still crap? thx.

It's a fantastic temple, but apart from the colours there's nothing much to say that it's an oriental theme... There's not enough wood for my tastes.

All of your structures seem to use the same column-on-the-four-corners and open-inner-area approach. Think about real buildings, because right now, they are certainly not realistic. Keep trying though.

Well... I'd try not to put coasters on the ground, and try using some walls in your architecture. Plus, your foliage needs more work - all that grass looks a little boring, if you've left it there deliberately perhaps try mowing the grass using a trainer? If not, get some trees in there.

turtle: good idea. i definitely need some wood in there... i almost forgot about that!

postit: haha i didnt even realize all my buildings were the same. ill try switching it up

deanosrs: yea ill lower the land on the parts where the track are on the ground. the parts on the screen that have grass havent even been touched yet, so ill get to the foliage soon. i only put the trees by the middle of the temple to cover the exit of the coaster, so ill go back when im finished in the other areas to do something else

thanks fer the comments everyone. im learning more about the game each time!

Well im not sure that The Chinese really used the column(Roman) that much. Other then that I think its very good. The scenery looks nice, and i like how you have stuck mainly to two colors (Blue and Red).
