(Archive) Advertising District / new project: my first park >_<

k so all these amazing parks inspired me to make my own, and i hope you like it, the buildings arnt as extravagent, but i think its pretty cool, tell me your thoughts

its supposed to be called solaris but i have to change that cuz i went through the list and someoen already used that name, all of the screens have some things that still need touching up and filling in, but ill here the comments before i continue into fine fine detail

heres the entrance section, its suposed to be like a california, tropical, modern carnival. its called Sunset City



heres the pirate area, called Pirate Coast. Im gonna add another major attraction along with the pirate fortress themed virginia reel



last is another area called Jade Mountain. its the japanese themed area with a major coaster called Sakura. the station is a palace/japanese castle and this is only part of it obviously cause u cant see the bulk of it. this screen doesnt have the town part of the area in it



what ya guys think, am i outta my league?

It's not tooo bad. I've seen worse. You've still got a lot of room to improve. So far, it looks like you have an eye for rct.

The second screen really stands out here. I really like the virginia reel.

Yeah, the second screen is the best one so far. Reminds me of my work about 2 years ago over at some german sites... Maybe get 8cars to refine the theme with more detailed buildings and maybe barrels on the paths and whatnot.
But it's very good for a start here
egg

i like it.
pirate screen is very cool.
you have nice ideas. don't stop.

Maybe you don't have the finished qualities in your architecture, but the screens are definitely charming.. 'don't stop' indeed.

WOW! Pirate Coast looks really good so far, and I can't think of anything for you to change!

Sunset City is, sort of, underdeveloped. I think you could fill it up some more and add maybe a little bit more theming to the Inverted Hairpin. I understand that you are going for a carnival style, but everything should have a little theming, if you know what I mean.

As for Jade Mountain, good concept, but it needs more work and foliage. The hills at the top left look pretty bare. In many cases, that's a big no-no.

My overview: For a beginner, very good start. Needs a little work and theming in some areas, but for the most part, I like it. Good luck!

On the contrary i think the asian themed station in the third screen is just wow. It just looks really good. Well done and keep practising.

thx 4 all the comments, i took all of ur advice and made changes, ill post new screens when i get home ^-^

Hmm different... I enjoy the asian screen. Neat idea with the dragons on the way to the top. It's weird like your buildings arent the best but theres something there that i like, and i think im not the only one.

I'm not feeling it. I don't get what everybody admires so much.

completely agreed. these comments are making me want to re-release my really old stuff.

k so heres two more pics of the sakura coaster, seeing the screens makes me see the park differently. like more places for more detail so this is helps alot with all ur comments ^-^

completely agreed.  these comments are making me want to re-release my really old stuff.

Go right ahead!

Not bad, i like the pirate screen best.

As for the sakura coaster i dislike how its a mass of track and there are too many helixes for my liking. Gotta hurt the riders lol!

Better than what i could do anyways!

Its because its not being looked upon as a attempt of spotlight/runner-up, but as having fun on a game. It reminds me of my first days in rct2, where id build a huge mega park with 100 coasters and no buildings for shops/theming.

Great point Richie. That's exactly why I like it. I don't know about the others, though.

As for you, sexy overload (I still cringe when I have to type that),

The only thing I can think of is that you are using the same wall type over and over again. Just because the theme is Japanese doesn't mean you have to use the only Japanese wall there is. Mix it up, use different types of windows. Get more creative in your buildings. Only then will you become better than me!
