The Legend of Isla Serpente

[Merit Selket]

Inspired by the constest "think inside the box" I started my first sandbox project.

Isla Serpente is an island, located on an island, somewhere in the middle of the lost sea.
(dear Devs, could we get maps surrounded by water, so that my future islands don´t have to be located on another island?-pretty please)
Some call themselves lucky because they have found this hidden treasure of a zoo,
but the realy lucky ones are those who are able to leave the island that once belonged to the children of the Godess Serpenta, but that is a different story

a WIP at its very beginning

the first single buildings and decorations can be found in my steam workshop

somewhen in the future I might upload the complete zoo, but that is a different story

Wow, what a great start for a zoo! I really need to steal the idea with the cray walls using with the classic copper roofs and building huge builds for the exhibits. I normally only decorate small around them, but you definately inspired me to try something different next time.

Thank you, I am glad if I can inspire people.

Very nice. I have wanted to do something similar with an indochina look however many of the useful pieces are stuck in the india color palate.

 

[Merit Selket]

thank you. thats why my projects will always be fictional, so i can use every piece in game in any way I want. I have no intention to make it look like something in real life

the zoo is growing slowely, added the first habitat today, but still lots of work to do there. but I finished a fountain today and a fence I plan to use for dead ends

Good start with a lot of details.

 

[Merit Selket]

thank you. It is so much fun to add all those details. especialy decorating the gaps between the builds I placed so far, is super exciting, it changes the whole zoo and it is always interesting to see the results, since i do not plan anything, I rather "paint" the zoo while building

who needs a little staff building? I had to build one because my annoying staff was complaining all day long
(I will never get to build the first habitats on Isla Serpente - sigh!)

 

[Merit Selket]

I wasn´t sure if this would work, but it did
the keeper can use the walkway, too yay!
so then I can finish the other half of the first habitat on Isla Serpente tomorrow

 

[Merit Selket]

I finished the first habitat and started another 4, not sure what to put in there, yet. I just wish the days would have more hours.
Maybe I will do some changes to the climbing tower for the red riffed lemurs, looks a bit boring from outside, but they do like to use it, aswell as the walkway between the two halfs of the habitat

I finished the habitat for this gorgeous fella:
