    Hello guys!
    In this thread I'll be posting my projects I'm currently doing and I'll post the result of it once completed...

    My Projects:
    Green Lantern: First Flight: This is my very first project on here so please give me advice that may help. This is a Intamin Accelarator ('cause you know, the Green Lantern flies quite fast doesn't he?)

    As you can see, I'm not entirely finished, some architecture needs to be worked on and I'm not entirely finished supporting the ride. Like I said you can give me advice on it :)/>

    Hello Jackoasta.

    If you want to use blacktiles, then lower the ground first, it'll look better.
    I can't really comment much besides the supports, they could use improvement.

    Ok thanks, I'm keeping them there because I might do some more landscaping for the final product and yea the supports look abit odd at places and I'll change them, appreciate it matey!

    The support in your first & third screen that bends to avoid the lower track won't work. Either move it entirely or wrap it to both sides of the lower track.

    I hate that support!! :mad:/> It really bugs me on how it looks, I'm going to change it as soon as I can as it looks terrible.

    1 hour later:
    OK, I had a look at the supports and I'm happy to tell you that most of them have been improved (but supporting is still unfinished)

    This is the station of the ride, It follows the colour scheme of the Green Lantern, I've also made it seem modern/simplistic

    Another view of the station and the problematic support...IMPROVED!

    I was worried about this area, this area has the photo stall and the rides exit, the reason why I'm scared about the area is that it is way too simple, I should really put more buildings in, but what do you think?

    Posted Image
    This area here contains a Twirl ride called 'Power of the Ring' and a pretty small cafe.

    Another perspective of the area, showing the Staff entrance to the cafe and a bit of the 1st turn, but what else should I do?

    Posted Image
    This area is my favourite part so far, the 1st turn. The reason why I love this area is because I like the combination of the different trees and I adore the contrast of the colours with the brown-yellow and the leaf green

    The Overview!

    What do you think?

    No comments? All well!

    OK, the next project I'm going to show you another project, this one is called Das Schweizerische Alpine (The Swiss Alpine)(NOTE: THIS WILL NOT AFFECT GREEN LANTERN IN ANY WAY!). A problem is that I need your help on this one, I'm doing a station on a ride called Rooftop Run, I want to achieve a look that looks like the Alpine buildings, and I want some advice on what to do on the building. Here are the pics:

    Is there anything I can do on this building?
    Note: I am using Louis's Workbench 2012 to make it

    Cheers

    The building could benefit from trims ,more windows and maybe a balcony.
    The texture in the middle of the building is also very bland.

    Btw. you aren't stuck to the items in a workbench.

    Do you know parkdat?

    If not, i'll advice you to look into that.
    Parkdat allows scenery to be added or switched, while your building.
    There's a tutorial in 'ask the experts' if you're interested.

    Edit: Those supports look better now, not so awkward anymore.

    First thing you need to do when doing a specific theme like Switzerland, is look up pics for reference.

    Yeah I was think about adding trims but thanks for parkdat, going to check it out, but I don't what to do for the middle of the building. Thank you very much! :)/>

    ^I'll try and do that tonight ;)/>

    EDIT: Since this is my first time doing a large scale park design it may take me FOREVER to do it on my own so is it possible that someone could help me?

    problem: won't finish park because too big and new player
    solution: make smaller park
