I quiet like this!
Maybe it would look even better if you´d change the dirt texture underneath the coaster to something darker. The dark/bright contrast between the forest and the landscaping you have there right now looks odd IMO.
I´d also suggest to put chainlift on the diagonal track in the end to make it look like a brakerun.
Otherwise I think it looks lovely.
Edit: I dont understand how the maintenance-tracks work. Aren´t they too short to house a 6vehicel train? Or is that just some kind of architecture I dont understand and not meant to be maintenance-tracks?
Foliage-wise, I'm not sure about the palm trees. You got quite the mix of trees and they sort of aren't making sense for me. Also, the trunks of the silver birch tree should be grey instead of brown!
Keep going with this and you'll keep improving, well done!
Don't use the color able 2x2 Oak trees, they look too saturated and are really distracting. Paint the trunks of the birch trees grey as well, not brown. Also the foliage around the water is super boxy and not natural looking. Tree choice is alright but probably a few two walnut trees for my tastes. Density is good though, although coming from me that probably doesn't mean much.
Not a fan of the colors at all either, white and browns just dont mix. Layout seems a little too compact as well, try to implement more large turns when your building at this height/scale.
Building/station on the bottom looks great, as thats obviously your strong point. I wouldn't recommend using the default lamps on single wide paths though.
I think whites and browns mix plenty well, just not in this combination with white rails. Maybe try an inversed color scheme or just get rid of the white rails all together.
The colors of the foliage itself looks nice I think and I like how dense it is. It's just that it's a bit unorthodox/old school to mix palm trees, pine trees, and oak trees.
I do suggest using the grey for the trunks of birch trees. Other colors don't look right.
Very lush. I love the colours here, and that woodie looks good too. Though the mix of tree types seems a little weird to me, maybe you should cut down on the palmtrees... It doesn't bug me that much, though.
Yeah so I'm going to make the transfer track longer and I changed the brown birch to silver/grey. I was tying to go for a new tree color with it but I see alot of people prefer seeing the original grey birch tree. Maybe I will keep the palm trees since it adds texture , still on the fence about it .
Changed be squareness of the landscape by the water as Gforce suggested.
As for the path choice , I stuck with this path to correspond with the front entrance look . It's working pretty well , if I took a full screenshot of this area...you will see how it plays off .
Last , as for the building station , I might keep it dark brown buy add another color to make it really pop, goes back to what Steve said and Avanine
Get rid of the oak trees and the palm trees.
The station is lovely, just not keen on that colour purple, perhaps try a soft green, would look lovely against the foliage.
Hey Louis, which one is the oak tree again? the 4x4 big tree custom tree? And hmm you sure soft green? Wouldn't it be too much green and with all the trees XD
Yeah the 4x4 ones. It possibly would be too much green, but it might work. Or the dull brown. I'd also recolour the rails from white to brown too, they're a bit off putting IMO.
this coaster reminds me of nordstorm idk why
I really like this. I think the denseness of the tress works well, with the coaster tearing through it. Perhaps a little something on the bare patches of land, just so they aren't completely barren, would add a bit more credibility to the area. Even just the odd shrub, rock or difference in land texture.
Although realistically the palm trees might not fit, I think they look pretty good. I would advise you to keep them since aesthetically there is nothing wrong with them.
