well, the screens are kind of a let down..

but the fact they're there isn't!

The first screen is nothing special, but I have no specific problems with it, perhaps the roofing is one level of detail lower than your usual self. The middle two screens have the potential to be truly fantastic, but the last, the layout doesn't flow enough for me and the landscaping is a little sharp and erratic as it's forced to be by the design of the coaster.

Oke don´t be angry but this is like the style of TURTLE! and you know what! IS DAMN GOOD!

Imo it´s a very good park/solo/design or how do you wanne call it

i will take screen 2 and 3 .. it´s one big chaos of styles but it work super well..

about screen 4: i can´t say much about the woody but i think it will be a good one...
about screen 1: I have a german feeling... don´t know why...

I wish all the luck with this park!

I can't see any particular resemblance to my work... this is much more detailed, and will probably end up amazing.

Glad to see it's still going!

Yeah looks good. The buildings seem to be a little messy in some parts but i suppose they work.

Good that you are still working on this.

Sorry about the unfinished screens guys. May be why you may not like them much, or it could be the possibility that it will be a hit or miss area.

Dont worry about screens 2 and 3 though as they will only get better.
Also, the best area of the whole park is still to be revealed..and that wont be seen till release. Something to look foward to I guess.

Thanks for the comments though.

I really think that the terrain on the woodie looks really forced and unnatural, but I'm more worried about the layout itself. The out & back layout is suppossed to be a space saver, and the layout would be good except for the track that ventures off and around. I would rather have it either strictly out & back or follow a specific shape out & back style, something like Texas Giant or Mean Streak. Something like the last two coasters mentioned I think would keep the concept of what you're going for while making more sense, and would also enable you to do something more natural looking with that terrain there.

It's my Birthday!!!

The atlantis screen is absolutely amazing.

But in the first screen, what's up with the huge tower?

I pretty much agree. The Atlantis screen is a beautiful way of rethinking the theme, while that tower in the first screen looks like some weird rethinking of Epica. Also, you've shown so much of that area that it's no longer amazing anymore.

Although this is definitely looking magnificent.

I love this park, hands down.

On the first screen, I hope you're gonna cover up those ride entrance/exit buildings....because they stick out like a sore thumb....That tower in the middle is awesome, but I think its missing something.

The second screen, pure brilliance. The only thing, those umbrellas....why are they so low?

Wow. Very nice screens. I like the first screen but I'm not too sure of that tower but the resto of the architecture is magnificent.

But, that Atlantis screen is just fantastic. Everything about it is incredible. I even love those usually horrible jungle flowers that you've used. I really have no complaints about this area.

Apart from the tower, the park is definelty spotlight quality. Great job.

Looking good!

Corky's right, though -- you've shown us a few Atlantis screens, so I'm not going nuts anymore, but that other screen is quite the stuff. Although it's kind of incomplete, I'm loving it. Overall, it's a very well designed theme.

Nice job.

I am in love with this park now.

The first screen is awesome. You're architecture is flawless as usual. Landscaping is beautiful.

The second screen is just gorgeous. It definitely kept my eye more than a few minutes. Everything meshes and flows really well. Although I'm not a huge fan of the jungle plants, the usage of the vegetaion does not bring down the "lightness" of this area. Amazing.

You know how to add just the right amount of detail, where it's not too much, but not lacking.

Beautiful job Kevin, and happy brithday!

that, people... is atmosphere. I love that atlantis screen. looks very smooth .


i think the other screen needs some work. i'll come back to what i think about that...

The atlantis screen is absolutely amazing.

But in the first screen, what's up with the huge tower?

It's covering up a freefall ride.


As for the screens, all I can say is wow. Amazing.

The first screen is hard to look at because of the lack of competeness. It looks like it'll be awasome though. As for the 2nd screens it's stunning except for the fact that there are no normal roofs. Only those roundy 1/4 tile things. I use 1/4 tiles a roofing too however I still use some roofs and I would suggest that you do too because the best screen of atlantis was the first one, before you "bouble-ized" it...

Basically REALL ROOFS (spainish were what you had before) ARE BETTER.

Otherwise the forms, folidge landscaping and color is amazing. It's just lacking texture veriety without real roofing.

^^It may be covering up the ride, but the question still needs answering.... What's up with it?? It doesn't look good at all. It sticks out like a sore thumb!

I think the tower is great - like the Burnt Tower in Pokemon Silver It's epic!

I like the rounded roofs, too.
