This looks absolutely awesome. I hope I will also be that good in building Western themed Stuff
Started a new project today, just a one of reptile house somewhere in a city. Sometimes you just need to take a break from the big builds lol

I think about redoing the entire habitat. Any good suggestions for a brand new habitat?
What budget or theming does your zoo have? More of a classical zoo or highly themed? Have you checked zoolex.org for inspiration?
When I have no idea, I build a dome At least if it fits the animal. I also always use Planet Zoopedia, so the habitat won't get too big. And with elephants I always love a huge inoor area, because I love the changing of the sound between indoor and outdoor for them.
You might want to take a look at the elephant habitat in Hellabrunn then . I completley failed rebuilding it but maybe you are a better builder or it just inspires you.Budget is no issue. Got enough money in my franchise to re-do my entire zoo multiple times. This one has a centre with more classic look and branches off to themed sections.
Haven't check zoolex, will be looking into that one.
I would really like to see the Chimpanzee House once it's finished. I love it to keep Primates especially Apes and some Inspiration could be great.I want to build starting with a complex chimpanzee house but I prefer to build the entrance and first staff area before I do any habitats because otherwise I know I won't go back and do it, but that's where I'm getting stuck (as usual).
More Backstage Stuff would be great. Maybe also a Metal Bucket because the only Bucket in the Building Menu is made out of Wood and I think a Bucket that is made out of Metal would work perfect as a Backstage DecorationI also really wish we had some more props. In my last zoo I had a lot of random props around the staff area, like those new pallets we got in the Australia Pack, but I'd love more - shovels, brooms, more modern ladders and such, wheelbarrows, all of that would be brilliant (I believe there were props like that in PlanCo).
Is there a way we can help you? Maybe you want to share your concept of the zoo with us or background story and we can tell you, what we associate with it. When I'm stuck with writing it sometimes helps me when someone listens to my rambling and feedback what they getDamn it, I've lost motivation.
After I spent ages on my African elephant habitat I suddenly realised I had neglected to do much of any decorating around the zoo grounds, and all my major habitat areas were spaced out a lot. Which made me want to start fresh again. I've opened a new Sandbox zoo about four times with no progress. I have an idea for an African section I want to build starting with a complex chimpanzee house but I prefer to build the entrance and first staff area before I do any habitats because otherwise I know I won't go back and do it, but that's where I'm getting stuck (as usual).
They where already living for a very long Time in my Zoo but then I've got this Idea for a new Enclosure when I've started this Garden. I'm so excited for the Moment when they return to the Zoo@Urfu Funny, my next habitat also will be a black bear habitat. Have no idea for it yet, though

I use postimg.cc . The forum itself is a bit picky with screenshot size and such. Looking forward to see your entrance! I struggle with entrances often as well.I appreciate that, but I decided to do what everyone always says I should do and look up some real zoo entrances for inspiration. I ended up really liking the design choices of the Singapore Zoo entrance and the Chiba Zoological Park entrance, so I'm going to attempt to fuse the two into something (the wooden slats on the Singapore Zoo entrance are particularly to my fancy, and we have the means to recreate that in-game). If I can figure out how to get my screenshots to post here I'll share it (and the chimpanzee house for @Urufu1997) when it's done.

This looks really greatfinished my aboriginal rendition of the rainbow serpent, one of my favourite dreamtime stories in school.
