To be able to provide the guests with more entertainment the Fantasyland Theatre has been build and opened on the former location of the Fantasyland Giftshop, the Giftshop is now located in front op the Dumbo ride.





















1970

Five years of Disneyland and to celebrate Tommorowland is updated with The Viewliner, this isn't the last new thing in Tommorowland, next year the Rocket to the Moon will make his first flight.

The station for The Viewliner is located above the Arcade.

Content-wise you're good. Design-wise it's very simple and over-routined. Looks a bit primitive as a result.

You're growing, that's for sure. But it also lacks detail, but I think you will get better and better.

Buildings need more refinement ,that's for sure.
Other then that ,it's very pleasing and that big dome/building with the colored stripes is still so impressive. Maybe a little big ,but definately impressive.

I acually kinda hate the layout of this, it gives off no flow.

Thank you all for your comments, it helps me to get better.

@Shotguns? Can you explain what you mean? I don't really understand you.

Use the edges of your paths for example. Its basically straight and when you need a turn, you make it as unsmooth as possible.

I understand, I don't know how to do anything else actually.

1971

Like prommised, this year was the year of the first commercial flight to the moon, not the last new ride in Tommorowland, in just two years time Disneyland will host the ''World Showcase'' with buildings out of at least for different countries.














1972

Not a new ride for Tommorowland this year bur one for Fantasyland, next to the Alice in Wonderland area you can now experience the Aristocats adventure.

The Aristocats entrance building looks really nice. I can't wait to see what else you have in store.

that white main street building with the disney sign is pretty good

For some reason I really like the colorization of you're Space Mountain dome. It has a sort of originality to it.

You've done a really great job with this park. It can be really intimidating to try to build an entire Disney theme park on one map, particularly a Magic Kingdom-style park. All your themed lands are really nice, especially Tomorrowland and Fantasyland. Your Alice in Wonderland looks really nice, those paths are perfect for that space. Your Space Mountain's color scheme is really different, but I think I like it. Your castle is gorgeous.

Thank you all for your replies.

1973
Another new attraction for Tomorrowland this year, not a ride but an exhibition, World Showcase. Some typical buidlings from country's like China and Spaine have been build to let people believe they are in a different country.
They buildings are located between Space Mountain and the Submarine Voyage.

Before building:



















1974

Some of the backstage buildings in Adventureland have been demolished to make room for the new Jungle Book Theatre.
The paramedics are still in a building in Adventureland, the fire department is now outside of the park.
The Theatre is dressed like an old temple.
















1975

For the first time since the opening of the park there are no new rides this year. Space Mountain however has had a new colour scheme. The path from the exit and to the entrance has also been changed.







1976

For the first time in ten years time Frontierland gets a new ride, based on the movie The Rescuers, the ride is called The Rescuers Hot Air Balloons.







1977

We stay in Frontierland but once again there is no new ride this year, there is however a new restaurant, Chuck Wagon















1978

Horses, stuntmen, fire, these are just a few elements of the newest Disney show. A theatre has been build in Frontierland between The Rescuers Hot Air Balloons and Chuck Wagon. Legends of the Wild West is the show that will be performed two times a day. The Big Thunder Ranch Barbecue will be used a part of the decor.

















1979

Not one land will get a new ride, but two. The second ride in the park that will connect multiple lands is the Skyway between Tomorrowland and Fantasyland. Two stations have been build and the ride passes It's a Small World, Autopia and some other rides.

Tomorrowland:









Fantasyland:











1980

In preparation of a large new ride in Adventureland in 1983 a new restaurant opened in Adventureland, the Blue Bayou.







1981

No new rides, no new restaurants and no new souvenir shops this year. Only preperations for a new ride next year, and an updated Doom Mine. The Doom Mine closed at the end of this season to get a make over. The parade floats are no longer stationed in a building behind Main Street, they now ride from the building behind Tomorrowland, over Main Street USA, through Tomorrowland back to the building behind Tomorrowland.
The building behind Main Street has been demolished to make room for National Treasure.













1982

After two years without any new rides, this year there are two, an updated version of the Doom Mine in Adventureland, and a search for a treasure in Main Streets newest ride; National Treasure. The new Doom Mine also comes with a small drink stand; Doom Drinks.











Like said before, next year will open a large new ride in Adventureland; Indiana Jones. The site of the ride has already been emptied. Captain Hook's Special Fish had to be closed unfortuatly.

This is massive! There's some impressive stuff in here. I think your work will benefit hugely from some variation in land tile patterns, there's a bit too much bare grass at the moment. Keep it up!

Nice update!

I would otherwise think of this park as "meh" or "there's a bit too much going in most screens", but the fact that you show us how you build somehow justifies your style and techniques. It's very interesting and I oddly enjoy looking at all the screens like they're a story. Nice work!

Too many screens to comment.

I commend you for your effort in putting 64 screens in one post. That must have taken some fucking time.

What he says. ^
Maybe you should post less screens so people can comment more specificaly.
