(Archive) Advertising District / BABYLON

i like the gardens and the archy very much but i do want to see some coasters and btw come football season donT even think of useing any kind of buckeye shit on your sig or avater

PS.................... C-A-N-E-S CANES!!!!!!

Andrew: Actually it is like Babylon...not a medieval village...I dont really feel like going into why...but you can go back through this topic and find out why it is like Babylon...and about the hanging gardens...I agree with you...because noone does know what they looked like...

Kumba: GO BUCKEYES!!!

Anyway...since I have only been receiving a couple replies for each screen I show...I will show the logo I made for the park...

The background is an image I used to help me create the palace...no screens of the palace will be posted...

Cool logo I like it.

I don't care whether the screens 'look like' Babylon or not. All I care about is that they look cool, especially those raised gardens and waterfalls.

I like the latest pic. It looks good, and gives off that marketplace feeling that I'm sure you were goin for. I think you should add some plants personally. Babylon was known as a lush city and so far all I've seen is the Hanging Gardens. What about menial plants and vines etc. that I'm sure they had around the city. I love the logo.

holy shit, whered you get that picture for the logo its awesome

Very Nice Park! Awsome Logo!

K the blue castle walls just don't work for me! Everything else looks great!

Thx for the comments...
I'm glad you all like the logo...I don't usually make my own logos...

Hevydevy: right on...there will be "menial" plants around

Andrew: I agree the background picture is awesome...I found it at this site:
www.billmunnsgallery.com...there are many other images there that were made by a program called Bryce...I don't know if anyone knows about it or not...but it looks like an amazing graphics program...

Hyper Helix: The reason for the blue walls is accuracy...the Ishtar Gate (the building with the blue walls) actually was blue...here is a screen that I used to help me recreate it...

#17: A screen of a building and the flier...

Because there is already a screen for you to comment Upon I will not post My next screen...so Please tell me what you think...

Well, I like the arching bits that join onto the main building, but i've never really liked the combination of pink tiled roofs and egyptian walls. Just a personal complaint.

And the colours for the coaster are a bit....sickly. They'd look better if they were brighter/more defined IMO.

i like it. less of the paving stones perhaps, but the coaster seems to fit in very well.

Mantis: I did make a color change on the coaster, I'll post a color change later.
deanosrs: I like the paving stones..but I am going to go back thru the park and might make slight changes to things later...
Thx for the comments so far..

I am leaving for vacation Friday so wanted to post one more screen before I left. I had thought I would get the park done before I left but it wont be done now until mid August....

#18: A screen of the giga in the park

i kinda liked the colors on the flyer

That site is great, though those pictures of Babylon are not completely accurate, many of those mosque style domes shouldnt be there, they were not around back then, mostly flat roofs in Babylon, they had no need for slants (rain was rare in the desert, and still is)

May not look like the hanging gardens of babylon, but Glitch ummm pictures of babylon in a history book, yeah and you know there just impressions of what the guy who draw those pics thinks it would have looked like. so what you have seen could be wrong to so dont flame his archy for not being like the picture you seen.

The park is nearing completion...
#19: A screen of a market-ish area...also some of the station to Merchant...

very nice, your archy is grate, it looks like RRs market but in RCT2

i do quite like it, AP. keep it up

I love it, especially the color stripes in the castle walls. And to all those who say it doesn't look right, when you can produce an actual photograph of Babylon, then you can make a statement to it's acuracy. Otherwise, just let AP build his park the way he wants to.
