Congratulations on finally getting design.  I know you've been trying to obtain it for quite a while. The first thing that pops out at me, quite literally, is the music.  It feels like something more akin to a soundtrack that voltron might use. Definitley misses out on a more sleek expo vibe like the architecture might suggest.  While I like the vibe you've tried to pull off here It does feel a bit disconnected with the rest of the map. Maybe some of the surrounding rides could have tied in with this area a bit, but that's honestly a nitpick. There is an inconsistency with the scale of the architecture as well.  The middle building feels (and I think is) shorter than the rest of the buildings in the area and thus feels squat because of it. While I'll commend you for using curves and trying to get used to those objects, it does have a sterileness that doesn't quite sit well with me.  I do think it's more of a personal preference at that point though.  The only other thing I'd like to mention is the middle building.  I'm confused as to why there is just a strip of gras around the building. I think continuing a similar flower bed motif like the one in front of the station woul've helped. 

Fantastic stuff Fred! This is probably my favorite work from you. I'm extremely proud of how you've been able to evolve your style in the past year since h2h. Doing solo work definitley suits you. Hopefully we can see you push yourself further and go for a full scale park in this style.

The limitations of the contest don't discount what was stated in any of the criticism. I honestly liked the aestetic and think the color choice was really good here, but the layout is too obscured in a few places so it's hard to follow.  There are some really cool moments of architecture too, but since it's all one color, it's very hard to find defined forms within it.  I'm glad you had fun with this and you should be proud of it either way, but please don't disregard feedback like this, because it's valuable. We aren't against you, we're trying to help you meet your potential.

I also wholeheartedly agree. I hate myself for doing it but I just wanted the park released.

That's fair, but that is what our graphics team is here for! Feel free to reach out to any of us (Josh, nin, BSG, or myself) or let the admins know. We definitely have a quick turnaround time when needed. 

nice park. stop using AI logos.

I'm Glad someone said it.  ( I will review this soon btw)
