Ok, why is everyone so bitchy about custom scenery. Toon made some nice items and Foozy used them to produce great results. Just because he used the scenery doesnt mean he sucks without it, it just means he chose to use it to fullfill what he wants to. Yeah, if you take the custom out of there it would leave a whole lot of nothing, but the custom scenery is there so comment on what is built and not on how much he uses. Personally, I love the screen and can't wait to see more.

The buildings are still quite amazing even if they dont have shops in. -

I have to counter your arguments somewhat here TT.The same thing happened when I posted the first screen of IOA. Some liked, some didn't. I know that Foozy was just posting a small screen to announce the project and show a bit of architecture. I'm quite sure it will develop and evolve into something much more than what it is. As for looking like RCT...if you want that look play LL. RCT2 can expand and change the game so open your minds and explore. It doesn't look like LL cuz he doesn't want it to. You don't have to like it, but criticizing it because it doesn't look like a different game isn't fair.
When I look at your new park, I think it looks great. You have good atmosphere, nice subtle hacks, and some great colours. Above all else great archy. You have used new scenery items throughout, however your park has still retained a similarity to RCT. I have no problem with people expanding RCT2 by using scenery items, personally I think it is great simply because we can really push the game to its limits. But when a map loses its RCT look, which to me is important (being a fan of the game since it first came out), I personally don't think it looks very appealing. In LL, because we only had a set amount of scenery, it was easy to see who was and wasn't "skilled" at making parks. Those who were good at it knew how to use existing scenery items and manipulate them to fit their theme. With the advent of importing scenery in RCT2, this has all disappeared. With this in mind, telling who is and isn't "skilled" (again brackets, since after all, it is in the eye of the beholder) is classified through a different set of standards, more so based on archy, atmosphere, etc. While Foozy has definitely created a good looking pic with good atmosphere, I think it departs too much from RCT, away from the game, and therefore is not appealing.
Sorry for the uncoordinated counter-argument... I'm just typing what pops in my head.
Basically the bottom line is that I'm not asking that RCT2 parks look like LL and use less custom scenery, I'm asking merely that they retain the feel of the game.
(lol, I hope that made some sense) -

Poor lion.
Anyways, that screen is beautiful and amazing. You've done something no one else has attempted in RCT/RCT2 yet. A totally new realistic theme. It's beautiful and my hat is off to ya.
Great job and keep it up. -

Oh shit I hate you. I'm guess that you blacked out part of the upper right... rather than it being empty space (cuz that would make this a 20x20 map...).
Wow. The detail hurts my eyes. I hate you, Foozy. -

That is... amazing.
With other buildings, it looks more RCTish, so you can disregard my original comments.
Great work Fooz! -

Simply beautiful! The detail is incredible, probably my second favourite piece of architecture ever.
Hats Off To (Roy) Foozy!
