Parks Welcome to Aeroland (WIP)

Hey guys, I am currently building a big park, I am just about to finish up the entrance area of my park.
I wanted to share my progress so far, because I am very happy with the results so far.
Any critisism is welcome ofcourse, as I am aiming t improve. The area is mainly themed in a somewhat mediterranean theme.

I will be updating this post every now and then, when I made some progress.

I'm liking it a lot, it has a very relaxed vibe so far.
There isn't really anything I can critique, it looks pretty good to me.
 
Looks like you're off to a good start. Quite a few nice details in there.

Thanks! Seen some of your stuff as well, so I appreciate it [big grin]

Thats great to hear! I think it's only me who sees some flaws here and there, because I am the one who made it haha.

Agree, very nice vibe, great start.
Thank you!
 
Very nice and detailed Park. The layout around the lake is really well done. I like how the surrounding path is integrated seamlessly around the edges of the lake. Really well done. I think you have a really good start here. Agree with the others... nice vibe! [yesnod]
 
A small update, well not really an update as I haven´t had a lot of time to play, but I have made a quick video with some cinematic shots for those who are interested, I think it captures the feel of the area a little better than the pictures.

Thanks dude! I am trying to get as many details in as I can with reasonably few objects, as I am having big plans for this park and don´t want to run into framerate issues. I am really happy with the edge of the lake as well. [big grin]

Really liking the entrance here... looking forward to seeing more
Thanks! I am finishing up the boulevard in the same style before switching over to a slighly different style in the next `town`. I have an idea how I want that town to be but I haven´t started workin on it yet.
 
Just added two more houses along the boulevard. Noticed I need to add some light sources to one of them while making screenshots, haha.
Im really happy with the building with the balcony, one of the better ones I have done yet in my opinion.

Just built the layout for another village on the opposite side of the lake, I hope to have the whole thing done by the weekend.
The goal is mainly to play a little bit with height differences in the village, which gives a nice dynamic feel to the area.
This village has the first Thrill ride and will eventually also have the first Roller Coaster.

Pretty neat integration of gridded paths and 1 huge building that looks like many small buildings. Nifty technique :)

It indeed started out as one huge building, but I seperated each "block" so I can move each house up or down slightly to create some more height variations. And besides, it makes editing a little bit easier to have seperate buildings. [big grin]
 
Small preview of what I am going for with this village. Making nice progress, I think I am able to finish it up tomorrow.

Managed to finish up the biggest part of the village. The next step is the first Roller Coaster of my park!

Whoa, that's very cool! Not only the village and all the details of the buildings, but the whole setting as well around the lake. Very nice. And thanks for the tips on how to make such things.

Thanks alot, I am really happy with these results! Didn't think it would work out so well, but it did! This town is completely made with the path grids, the only things I've done without it are the stairs.
The only thing I'm not sure about yet is what color to make the Insanity (The thrill ride). The lights stay green, but nothing else in the village is green except for some trees haha. I've tried to make it the same red as some buildings in the village which looks pretty decent but I am not sure yet.
 
So I've put the roller coaster in it's place. I'm not that good at building roller coasters but this one is decent haha. It still needs all the scenery around it, including the station.
I am planning to terraform some mountains around the coaster and make a kind of a forest-ish area where people can walk through underneath the roller coaster.

And I made a nice shot of the area so far, I have a feeling it has a little bit of a fish-eye effect but it still looks pretty good to me!.

Designed the basic layout of the station and also added the queue line. Next step is to work on the scenery around the queue and add a few more details to the surrounding area. I'm giving the project a rest for a few days as I am busy with university work at the moment.
