    All right... Since I'm doing a peep-friendly park, I thought I'd might as well do a not-so-peep-friendly park. It has a more traditional feel than Lake Acuity, but it maintains that fantasy-esque feeling. Down with realistic parks! ;)

    I think you're overdoing it a little bit with those brown path roofs, especially since that's what you're using for the actual path as well. Maybe use the crazy path for the midways to make the buildings stand out more.

    That coaster is brilliant though. I haven't seen a coaster in LL that impressed me that much since inVersed was doing LL months ago.

    Get that spotlight page ready.

    I love the castle and the atmosphere in the third and fourth screen. I don't feel much for the coaster and it's surroundings, there's not much too see.

    Also I agree with the first part of Comet's post!

    I added another screen =P my connection sucks, so Photobucket took its fucking sweet ass time lol. Thanks for all the comments, it's nice to get positive criticism and comments.

    I'm using Busch Gardens Europe (the real one lol) as an inspiration; it's surrounded by a forest, which is what I'm going for here. I think a problem with my older parks was that I overdid it with the foliage and always included dense patches of trees. Since that's not how it is in "real life," I took a cue from Natelox's parks and took it easy with the trees while still maintaining a fully-loaded forest look lol.

    And the brown paths go with the look I'm going for, so unfortunately, they be staying ;) Trust me, I've got an italian section to finish up and it's not so brown lol. I'll post more screens within the week!

    Yeah that cobra roll will probably hurt.

    No wonder the coaster reminded me of Loch Ness Monster. :p

    Great screens, I really like the atmosphere and foilage you have going. Though I think you have overused the brown path a bit. I take the brown path off of the rooves and change it with either a different type of path or trackitecture.

    Keep up the good work, and weclome back. :)

    Interesting theme for a water coaster. I like it. It's different.
  • posix%s's Photo
    Has a lot of oldschool charme.

    Okay, what is with you and parks named after the lakes from Pokemon Diamond/Pearl? First Acuity, then Verity... Wait, let me predict the next one: Valor?

    I like them, though. Like posix said, they have a nostalgiac air to them. Like something you'd see if you scroll to the bottom of the Spotlight's page. (Does anyone ever go down that far?)

    There really isn't anything that I don't like. Keep up the good work! :mantis:

    Looks great Tony. Your LL work is rated highly in my books.

    I kind of changed the park name lol. I just didn't want to make a new post for it.
  • inVersed%s's Photo
    I dont really understand the name change. There doesnt seem to be anything "Busch Gardens" about this park aside from the interlocking loops on the corkscrew coaster. Still i like this park, and it has a real strong old school feel to it

    I'm in love with the new screen. I love the dead icey atmosphere. Its very hard to incorperate an ice theme into a large scale park imo so it will be nice to see how you can do that.

    I like it! Perhaps too much tan/brown in the first section, but other than that it's really enjoyable to view. It's very honest, if that makes sense. Too many people get bogged down with an excess of hacking and trying to add far too many details than I think are necessary, and that's what makes this so fresh.
  • SSSammy%s's Photo
    i love this so much.
    you make it look so easy, i cant pull this style off.
    which is odd, cause i love it so much.

    I see the Busch Gardens influence...

    DarKastle as a water coaster? I like it.
