enjoy

Some really nice stuff there Matze, i really like the last screen with the rapids-bridge, very nice. If this is one of your solos, make sure it gets finished this time!

-X-

i have to admit, i really really like that screen

QUIT WHORING YOUR OWN WORK. WE HAVE THE AD DISTRICT FOR THAT.

I think you don't understand this topic completely: it's about showing the 'little things' that people might have missed or something you are really proud about. So posting work of your own is very likely. However some people don't understand that larger screens and screens with too much 'overview' don't belong here.

Brrrap Brrrrap!!



^ftw!

i'm fine with people posting little details from their park. i got mad because matze is using this thread to gain popularity or what have you by showing screens of work that has not yet been released. i'm fin with turtle doing IC, or artist doing IoE because those parks have been released and a majority, if not all, of the members of the community have seen those parks and may have missed those little details. that, to me, is what this thread is for; showing people little details they may have missed when looking at your park. NOT showing screens of your own work that very few people have seen, if any at all, as a means of showing what you are doing, or to just flaunt it, as it seems many people have been doing.

Fuckin hell does it matter?

^ Ha, that's what I was thinking...

Although lately it's seemed to less of "look at this specific thing because it's cool and usually not noticed" to "look at this entire screenshot that has a lot of detail and pick out something you like".

Okay i'm not trying to whore thisk but i just thought some people might wana see this....
The station area to my Alpengeist inspired Fusion Survivor II entry....for the realistic among you please notice the baggage rack.

anywho everyone go and download both the innovation and Ultimate maps from the FUsion website (that was whoring it)

More playing around with landblocks. Meant to be a recreation of "Old Harry" and "Durdle Door", two local landmarks.

Hey, i've visited those, and i must say, its a good attempt lol..

Old Harry


Durdle Door


Marshy

Haha, brilliant! Obviously some artistic license went into them, but yeah...

We used to climb up onto Durdle Door and dive off the far side of it when we were younger, and a little more care-free...

RCTFAN, that's brilliant. I really, really like that whole screen, actually. Do you have AIM?

Ive just been browsing a few park's and i know i know, Iris did his own review for sea world brisbane, but i wanted to do one 'cos i loved it so much.

You have probably seen everything i am about to show, but i liked it so much i really wanted to do a 'little things' post for it.

So anyway...



The barrels! It looks so nice, with those plant pots at the front, and the torches at the top. I found the entrance to the queue really nice too.



I don't know why I loved this cable car station so much, the braces across the station might have been it, or the fact that its so simple set so brilliant.



An obvious favourite, and probably one of my favourite inversions ever, simply because it looked so damn good. Everything is brilliant...the rocks on the inside of the corner, the walkway, the towering building next to it, the fantastic waterfall, the photo shack, and the foliage.



This screen is yet again so simple, but pulled off perfectly. the lighthouse is so simple, but wow. I even loved the torches, and the boat.



I didn't really like the minicoaster at first, i thought it was plain, boring, and showed signs of Steve rushing. But for some reason, the more and more i look at it the more i fall in love with it.



This was definatly the highlight of the park, and probably the best queueline ive ever seen. The waterfalls were ace, and the custom rocks were also great.



If somebody told me that they were going to use a colour scheme of white and blue, i would laugh in their face and tell them to rethink. But after seeing this amazing entrance area, maybe i should rethink. The architecture is small, but great. The fences were cool too.



The operating booth was a great touch, and the little one tile buildings were simple but looked great.



Wow, i know this is a 'little things' topic, but i cant pick any little things out of this screen. The reason? It looks so good as a whole, what a turnaround.



This walkway was beautiful, the 'framing' was great, and the chairlift over the top looks awesome. I love the little 'dead ends' with the benches in.



And finally, i dont even know what it is, but its great anyway .

I've never really noticed these little things in peoples parks, but people are putting more and more details into parks, which really excites me when i imagine what we will see in the future.

Great job, Steve v2

Thanks Marshy. I enjoyed that post. The last thing is meant to be like a tide pool exhibit, with the creatures and foliage/coral underwater. I really like the turnaround too, for some reason. Not to sound big-headed but I think the supports really add to it, regardless of how realistic or nonrealistic they really are.

I like the sixth pic. The drain looks so in-place. Good job, Steve.

steve, that foliage around that turnaround is immaculate. i love it.

Pics in Marshy's post wow'ed me, grats Steve.

I've not actually downloaded any of the PT2 Parks, not through arrogance its just Im always out or playing on WoW so I never get the chance. I look forward to downloading SWB one day though!

Alright.
Now I'll present some little things from a really cool, classic style park from Turtle:
Bijou Magique

I looked at this park about 1000 times and it impressed me really much, despite it is kind of simple built, it got plain waterfalls and in some cases blocky buildings. But things like framing, texturing, realism, fantasy, sense, details ... really give it an awesome touch.

Here the little things:

1. MUSIC

A totally underrated factor of parkmaking. The music in Bijou Magique really creates atmosphere and in those mythic and mystical themes it is just perfect and makes me shiver in some parts of the park.

2.

The use of path is just awesome in this park. Turtle knows how to inflict the path in the theming, just awesome.

3.

I love these barrels and treasures on the path. Funny for the peeps + these yellow-red flowers fit really good, I never thought they could be used ANYwhere.

4.

Probably the best custom ship in rct I've seen. Details like this catwalk and the dude in the cage at the top (outlook).

5.

The smallest area in the park but a nice one. This hacked monster truck ride is cool. It really interact with the theming. (rumbling cars at wooden bridges...)

6.

I think I dont need to explain that ride. The station is awesome + awesome foliage. On this screen you can find these little fire torches, they are really thin but cool

7.

beauty meets rct

8.

These really small port area is amazing. Its a contrast to the others mystical ones. Really love the wooden coaster roof

9.

These stone arch thing is really cool. Just awesome to discover.

10.

Simple custom lamps, but impressive.

11.

Imagine you sit in the wooden train and the lifthill beams you up. Sunbeams dazzle through that shrine... just awesome

12.

i love the fact that this temple on a small island got cannons to protect itself and the bay behind.

alright that were my little things from bijou magique. Really cool park.
And excuse my english crueltys, i am a german guy.

Alright, have fun dudes

^^ if only sea world actually built like that

Thanks very much thirteen, glad you liked it. I hate looking back on it now, there's only certain bits of it that I like, the rest just seems, well, simple.

I'm annoyed that I couldn't get to Steve's park first, but i'm glad that someone did it. I love parts of it, and i'm sure it will become a classic. You continue to amaze me.
