holy crap, you're actually going to finish this, enjoy the win you magnificent bastard, you deserve it
I would say you're overdoing the trackitecture.
I agree. I don't really know where to look here actually. It's all a bit messy and the blue queue distracts in a bad way.
I disagree with the "overuse" of trackitecture. NCSO is at its best when you integrate trackitecture like you would in LL. It makes sense that you use trackitecture to make up for the fact that you're working with a very limited palette. I am looking forward to this park very much.
As for this screen, I really enjoy the architecture and the station. The left side feels unfinished / empty. Try some different landscaping / foliage options. I agree about the blue queue, a color change and some canopies / details would help it fit in better.
What's messy is the lifthill of the water coaster (how many track types are there?) and also the last part of that coaster with the different tracks resulting in different supports. The other messy part is the rightmost higher brown building in the row of buildings. I don't really know what's happening there because of the angles of all the walls.
I do agree that the trackitecture is a bit overdone, but only in places. For instance, the flat mine track on top of the log flume station could be removed and I think it would actually improve the shape. Also perhaps on top of the covering over the bridge. Just to add a bit of variety to the roof styles.
Also as Faas pointed out, the lift looks a bit clunky. But the monorail track and pretty much everything else in the screen looks like it belongs.
You make me want to play NCSO. I think that's the biggest praise you can receive as an NCSO player. Not as in making me specifically, but in general making people want to play NCSO.
I completely disagree with the comments about trackitecture. I think you've found a balance that suits your style perfectly and it helps to add a lot of texture to the otherwise bland textures found in NCSO.
Yeah, I think the screen looks great.
You've gotten so much better!
