Taman Safari Hutan

[TheYeti]

Hi guys! I finally started making actual progress on the entrance plaza and I think it starts looking really cool! I still need to change the logo, but it gives an impression of what it will look like. I used some blueprints for the plaza (most notably the Cosmic Cow Cafe and the Garuda statue).

Please let me know what you think!

That is amazing TheYeti ! I love these tropical zoos, makes me feel jealous of the warmth.

The entrance underwent some changes and it's close to being finished. Please let me know what you think!!

It's been a while, but I did some more work on the entrance and started the ape section, based on Ragunan Zoo's Pusat Primata Schmutzer. Hence the central location in the park. Some of you might've seen these images on Reddit.

Today I worked on getting a more realistic vibe for a South-East Asian jungle zoo. Based on images from Indonesian gardens and Bali's Monkey temple, I created some overgrown stone walls to create a nicer transition to the cassowary habitat. It's still not fully finished but I'm quite happy with the progress so far.

Wow!

For the past week I've been working on a restaurant and for the first time I'm happy with how a cafe turned out that I built myself (although the kitchen parts are blueprints). I present to you: Kopi Gorila, inspired by Singapore Botanic Gardens' Casa Verde.

Also on the Workshop

In the past weeks I continued to work on the ape house, and also created a mandrill habitat. Here's some photos of the Kongo Plaza/Ape House and the Mandrill habitat. I may change details but consider most of this finished.

Here's some photos of the pygmy hippo area and the connected warthog habitat, based on Singapore Zoo.

Absolutely amazing, loving the climbing structure.

Your planting is incredible

As a continuation of the African wetlands/rainforest section, here's a swampy flamingo habitat. I took more photos but they failed to save due to my laptop being unable to handle it.

The photos continue to amaze me

very lush and realistic looking. Great work.

 

[FoxyDee]

Awesome, love the swampy feel to it

Absolutely in love with your Flamingo habitat, so lush and green!

Your Zoo is stunning - the beautiful buildings and lush landscapes remind me of Singapore and its gardens - just beautiful

Gotta say, i adore these two areas! The hippohouse looks so fun and i love your custom education boards, aswell as the little aquariums on the side. The indoor section for the hippos with the mosaik is just gorgeous and the outdoor habitat is rather plain compared to everything around it, but still really beautyfull and eyecatching because of that.
And with the monkeys, holy your planting like a god and those climbing frames are to die for. Amazing job, this must have taken so many hours!

Been a while since I posted here. In the meantime, I made some progress on the Southeast Asian part of my zoo. A little tunnel connects the clouded leopard exhibit to the Komodo dragon exhibit. Nothing of it is fully finished, but I like how things are finally coming together.
