the woodie looks really nice, but in that area, I would get the path-to-foliage ratio a wee bit more balanced. But other than that, awesome.

Don't like the foliage very much...

nice station.
but yeah the foliage is pretty weak.

I agree about the foliage how ever i think the tan building looks great.

Solid work r_e! The station detail is spot on and the foliage os decent. I'd remove the plants off the rocks though

Keep it goin

Really damn good, except yeah, the foliage is a little week. I still don't get how you can handle peeps in your park as its under construction though.

as stated, the foliage ain't right. Also, though, I think the station has too much white, and the reddish building in the background has horrible coloring.

The gingerbread look is still there, but not quite so much. the little clump of rocks and bushes in the center of that path looks kind of like it was just thrown there to break up the path.. maybe make it more organized, or at least like it was supposed to be there? the whole thing looks rather quaint.. the little dock and the sign outside the bathroom/atm building are nice touches.

I'd change the rock walls at the bottom of the red building and the station. The ATM and the Toilets look very nice, i may steal that idea , but seriously, the only bad thing i suppose, is that the foliage needs a bit of work.

Oh, and personally, i think the wood colour of the dock would look better brown.

Keep this up r_e, it's looking very promising!

Looks good, but the station looks more like a hotel and the path choice is just blurgh.

^ it's possible that it could be a hotel, like at WDW where the monorail goes right through the building...

and if it isn't, I think it'd be a good idea r_e .

Sorry to hijack your topic r_e but I think it will help you and others in the long run.

There are 5 comments of "the foliage is weak" from the last SS alone however there was no explanation of what was "weak" about it. I see these kinds of comments all the time, the coaster is weak, the architecture is weak, the colors are weak, the foliage is weak. Although I called quoted the comments above, there are many others on the site that seem to think that this comment is acceptable. I understand that everyone has a right to their opinion, however be more specific and don't take the easy way out with your comments. Give a reason WHY you feel it's weak. It's called constructive criticism, start using it!

okay.

he used cyad bushes and not enough full tile trees.
FIX THAT SHIT.

@all those who said the foliage is weak:
I placed 1/4 tile foliage exclusively around the western monorail station because thats all that would fit without zeroing clearances, but since I zero clearances about 1000x /day anyway, a few more times wont hurt, so ill do that and add a few full tile, low-lying trees, that should fix the foliage problem.

@tracidEdge:
Thanks, and Ill fix the foliage.

@JDP:
Thanks, and Ill fix the foliage. (is there an echo in here?)

@RCTNW:
Thanks! And good call about the plants on rocks comment, that will be taken care of too. Also thanks for coming to my rescue on the foliage issue

@zburns:
Thanks! , the peeps are not a bother to me, and I actually like having them testing everything in my park, especially the path layouts and shop/stall distribution.

@Ling:
Sorry you don't like my colors but I do, so

@][ntamin22:
Of course it was put there to break up the path, and its doing a mighty fine job of it, if I do say so myself. I really dont see how I can "organise" an island of rocks and shrubs, or make it look like it is "supposed" to be there. And thanks for the compliments on the little touches.

@Lloyd:
The rock walls are staying, I like them. If you want to steal the ATM and Toilets idea go ahead, I dont mind. The color of the top of the dock is black because it is not just wood, but it has that black, non-slip surface on top of it. And thanks

@Marshy:
Sorry you don't like my path choice here, I thought it was very "westerny"



Time for an update! (...and the people rejoiced...yay ) More from Boot Hill, the western 1/3 of the park, we (barely) see the as yet unnamed go karts ride, as it is almost completely encased in a giant blob of shops, as well as a piece of the Intamin Looper Desperado, a piece of the Woodie Roughrider, and the top of the green house that can be seen at the very bottom of the pic is part of the theming for the log flume ride.

I love that little cluster of buildings in the middle, nice go kart idea too.

I don't have much to add, other than to say that I really dig your style...

those buildings have amazing facades... the foliage could still use tweaking in places, but great for the most part.

Looks awesome, only thing I see is that the monorail is a little un-supported on that curve.

On that screen from Jan 20, the foliage is a little weak.
