Koalas in my Japanese zoo. I love them!

I really enjoy your building style, it looks amazing yet simple and very realistic.

Do you have any pictures of the outside of your koala house? I'm looking for some inspiration on that. I tend to avoid the YouTubers for inspiration because they all go slightly overboard.

Sorry I literally just saw this as I was moving around the time you posted. As it happens I literally just deleted it and rebuilt it. It was in the Australian wood but now it's concrete and glass but the footprint of the building is pretty similar. Here is how it looks now but it's still a work in progress.

Here is the inside. The enclosures have a false floor as I needed to sink the enrichment trees to get them in under the roof - but that causes the ground to sink in a kind of hole so I covered it with the floor.

Added a rail along the concrete wall which I think softens it and looks a bit more realistic. I did the same with my Japanese-style Japanese macaque enclosure. This zoo has lots of concrete...

Looks very nice @markun. Nothing over the top or too extreme but very realistic and nicely done. Really enjoy looking at your creations on here keep up the good work.

I'm loving these latest enclosures. As a few others have said, they are simple but realistic. The outdoor bits remind me of certain sections of the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. Really well done!

Thank you, I appreciate that! Simple but realistic is what I’m going for! I’m trying to do some slightly more complex building work but I’m taking my time.
