Ok, it stays then.

I don't mind it, I just thought it was random.

i don´t like the building, it seems to be out of place. the landscape is nice

Too many tall, skinny poplar trees. Building looks good, nothing wrong there, so yeah it's just the trees. Get a better veriety, but be carefull not to layer them in too thick.

Oh, I forgot to say this. The ice isn't supposed to be ice, it's supposed to be like snow...or something.

It's ok, but maybe at the top of mountains, yeah.

If that is snow, then why the trees that are higher than the top of the mountain aren't covered with snow? Maybe place some shrub bushes on the mountains instead of the trees. Just to create the feeling that the ice tops are higher than the rest. I think the trees destroy that feeling atm.

Its nice to see how far you've come with your parkmaking trav!

As far as the screens. The first screen is nice, but like others have said, I don't understand the purpose of each building. Some signs might help a bit. Also, the white makes for a nice accent color, but theres too much of it. I would change the balconies to brown, but keep the arches white for accent.

The second screen is better and really reminds me of turtle's work. The stairway is a wonderful idea. However, I have to agree with jem's comment that there are too many horizontal deco pieces in there. the architecture is good structurally and colorwise, so don't change it a bit. The ice/snow is another good idea, but its not executed very well. I would make the snowy peak much taller than its surrounding land with strategically placed foliage around the base.

Still tho, great stuff. You're definitely on my radar.

The first screen is pretty cool, but like they all said, work more on the basic structure shapes and don't necessarily get rid of the white fisherman stuff, but have some of it blend in. The rooves look somewhat dull. Use the quarter tile wooden rooves in a manner that is more complex and appealing. Lose the yellow flowers for light blue ones, because light goes well with dark and blue goes well with red. Put fences one the outsides of the 'tween layers to give the theme more of an atmosphere.

For the second screen, put the yellow flowers in that screen perhaps, but it sort of contrasts with the theme you have going. However, I highly suggest that you lose the deciduous trees on the mountain screen, because everybody knows that deciduous trees don't grow well out in the cold. Lastly, how about you put in some rocky landscape where there is little or no foliage to gain more of a mountain atmosphere.
