It blends into the back of the building behind it (entrance building right?) and just gets lost in the surroundings, rather than popping out like I think most Carousels should.

I agree with this. I looked at the image before reading the caption, and thought it was another part of the entrance building because its so close and has the same colors.

I love the structure itself, but the colors are killing it. It blends into the back of the building behind it (entrance building right?) and just gets lost in the surroundings, rather than popping out like I think most Carousels should.

Listen to Maverix, nin!

Looks good guys

-You've created a carousel that is symetrical all the way round, a standard thing to do, yet you've placed it on the edge of the park, and thus there is no point to the symetry and it makes the carousel look out of place. I'm a massive fan of carousels that don't sit in the centre of path, so am glad to see you took this approach, but as I said, because of these overhangs that stick out, it makes it look out of place.

I really agree with this. The carousel kind of has an identity crisis where the architecture itself is elaborate enough to signify some sort of showcase ride but the location is not. Not saying that it has to be a centerpiece but I think some sort of symmetry with the surrounding path/gardens/fountain would frame the carousel much better.

I like it, but I'd change the top half of the top monorail track black to round out the roof.

100 years wooo!

nothing says washington like an abandoned saw mill

It's a good screen but I dislike how much you use that roofing method and does your water tower really need a water tank that needs another water tank? The way you have cropped this is also pissing me off.

Except for the water tower comments, please disregard Pacific-angst's comments. Thank you.

I actually like the water tower stuff.

If the tanks are theming it's fine by me.

Pac be hatin on coups

C'mon Pac, loosen up.

It looks nice Coups, although one water tank would probably be enough.

I think it looks excellent. I like the water tanks, whether they're theming or inaccurate, they still still look badass. You have a really refreshing and clean style, Coupon, keep it going, dude!

Don't get me wrong, I definitely like the screen, but I feel the area would benefit from a greater amount of water tanks.

I wasn't trying to come off the like an ass, but the whole cropping statement probably made it seem that way. I've told him this before though. "Why not present a finished screen rather than cropping it sloppily."

what, finishing stuff?
that's overrated

that log flume steeze!

Great job on the last screen

Is that a black hole in the bottom right or is that just another terrible crop job?

All jokes aside, looks great coups. Keep it up bud. Hope to you see in PT4.

If you produce work like this in the prelims, you'll have no trouble getting a spot. Great stuff.
