Wow. Cool colours and crazy architecture. Amazing work there. Well done. What is the orange pole supposed to be? -

Reference point for the tower: it's just a little building help. I constructed only the top of the tower and didn't build it from ground up. Instead of that I'm building downwards. I can estimate my remaining space better that way.Wow. Cool colours and crazy architecture. Amazing work there. Well done. What is the orange pole supposed to be?

I'm really enjoying seeing these under construction pictures from you... it's interesting to see how people build to develop such things as architecture and landscaping. It looks crazy, from what I can see... -

Interesting. I'm usually not that fond of parks like this (see my previous post in this topic) but that new is actually quite pleasing. Very original, and good work with 1/4 pieces. -

Nice screen, the colors seem to fit really well, and im really intresed in how you are making that tower (from the top down) thats a pretty nifty idea.

I'm really liking this section. Its so colorful and the architecture is fantastic! I really like the look of this ride, ecspesially the tower that will be next to it. It looks like a lighthouse.
This will definetly win runner up and stands a very good chance at spotlight.
Keep up the amazing work Tyandor! -

Good to see one of my favorite parks still in progress. I absolutely love the color scheme here. The structures, altho a little flimsy in places, are also extremely well-done. The only fault I can give is that the tall tower just doesn't haven't enough structure. Those colored egyptian pillars look like they could give at any moment.
But still, very good parkmaking....keep at it dude.
P.s. I'll have WW on Friday this week to see the park if you still want to show me your progress -

This doesn't actually appeal to me. I'm not a big fan of in your face colours used this randomly. It seems like it's almost done just for shock value and it tends to distract from the actual parkmaking. These screen just lacks in atmosphere for me. What's the feel of the area? What's it supposed to be, how would I feel if I were there looking around? I realize that people clamour over the so-called 'great' use of colour and its a very trendy style atm, but to me the colours are just randomly thrown in without a lot of thought about flow and accent.
If there were one thing I would change about this screen to improve it, it would be get rid of the coloured plants. A little natural green would go a long way to softening the impact and giving the whole thing a lot more warmth. I don't understand the use of coloured plants in this theme? -

I agree with Toon on the plants, and possibly change the exposed land textures to either brown dirt or good ol' grass too. Just give it something a bit more cooling and less overstimulating. The tower needs more support too, some 1/16 tile bits going up next to the egyptian pillars would make a world of difference. I also couldn't help but notice that you used way too many roof types. There's like 4 there on one building, cut that down to two and I'll be happy.
Personally I like the colors on the archetecture but overall it need to chill a bit...

Agreed...change the exposed land textures to either brown dirt
More suggestions:
Maybe add a a bit more land between the building and the tower in spots. I like the structure coming down to the waters edge in places, but a little more rockiness here and there would look really nice.
Upon further thought I'm guessing the coloured plants are meant to be coral? If so...tho it still doesn't work for me, I would strongly suggest you extend the plants so that there are also clusters under the water. Make it look like the reef is rising up out of the water.
Maybe lose the turquoise. I think that is the one colour that is bothering me above all the others. It feels like the one colour that has taken this over the top and made it look messy to me. I'd try one of the other colours you've used elsewhere in it's place.
