More color variety,Gold and Grey would work. The coaster looks okay,and the archy looks a little decent.
Not quite stellar though.

What's good: it looks ok on first glance...
what's bad: you have too much gold in it. you need barrels etc. on the building roofs. you need to introduce balconies. you need to change the color of the coaster. the path color needs to be changed. you need more foliage. you need to put rails on the buildings otherwise in reality people would fall off. you showed the ratings of the coaster which is a bit naff. you need more ornaments generally.
best of luck

Concerning that the coaster is called the Hive (assuming it's something like a bee hive) I would add more black tones and yellow stuff and add lots of flowers.

Thanks for the comments. This place is called: 'City of Brass' so I want it to look brass. I agree there is not enough ornament and I'll be working on that point. Still I dont know what to do with the top rooves. Any tips?

This any better?

Much better, its not going to be the same colour throughout the park though is it? I would try some lighter yellows and black. Looks good so far.

No it's not going to be the same color troughout the park. Actually there will be 6 areas:

City of Brass, a brass city
Ebon Stronghold, a black, spooky castle.
Then there will be a blue, white, green and red area but I havent made up names for them yet.

I already started on Ebon Stronghold.

Blue - Waterland
White- Snowland
Green - Earthland
Red - Fireland

This is a screen of Ebon Stronghold:

That's probably the worst screen of the lot. Experiment with more complex things, adding ornaments etc. as I said before. I know this is a bad example, but try and achieve something like this:



...then move on to more complex things.

Telling him to "conform to this" isn't going to help one bit. I'd say you've got a creative spark with the spider-leg-like things there, so keep nurturing that. I like the City Of Brass too (magic card!) and if other people can do monotone areas I don't see why you can't.

Yeh, the conforming thing means you start building what other people like to see, rather than what you actually want to build. Just take your time, and look over what you've done and think of possible ways to improve it. Personally, I'd add more colours and try to base themes on ideas rather than colours, but it's your park.

Mantis, you played that game too? I'm getting my inspiration out of that.

It's different to say the least. You could try adding some more details, like barrels and stuff, and some trees. However, it's your park, so it's up to you.

Yeah I played it a while ago, but had to give up cos I ran out of money lol. From Urza's to Prophecy, really. I should have guessed with the 5 different colours Good job.

Yeah, I quitted for the same reason. I played till the 6th edition.

True. I just thought the architecture needed developing a bit, that's all.

Svyelunite Temple:

Strangely enough, I love that screen because you've done something completely different there. Just get rid of the thatched roof and it'll be a winner.
