jzoole Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 (edited) Ok so I think I'm pretty much done building anything in this park so I thought I would post some pictures. It's my first time posting a park other than a couple things in the preview thread, so be nice! It's called Saint Arnold's Landing. Comments and suggestions would be appreciated! The first themed section off of the midway is called Gunbarrel Juntion. It is built at the foot of a mountain (very a la Lake Compounce) and features a skyride to the top of the mountain (also very a la Compounce) Also, a terrain out-and-back called "Mountaineer." Obviously somewhat Boulderdash-esque. If you continue down through Gunbarrel Juntion, you come to a GIB called FireFalcon. I don't usually build these, but I got a wild hair. Towards the end of Gunbarrel Juntion is a log Flume, "Big Timber Falls" which is intertwined with a Mine Train, "Phantom Mountain Mine." The next themed section is called Stratford Square. The main attractions here are a toboggan coaster called "Quest" and an Intamin Gyro Drop, "TerrorTower." Also within Stratford Square is a subsection, which is a kid's area called "Fairytale Forest," filled with kid's rides themed to different fairytales. Finally, the last themed section is "Kyoshi Village". The first big ticket ride in Kyoshi is a Schwarzkopf shuttle loop called "Samurai." A compact B&M Inverted called "Ryu" And finally, a river rapids called "Dragon River Rapids", and a short but sweet, low-to-the-ground Intamin launch coaster called "Kaidan." It was a tight squeeze. I sort of took inspiration from Rita Queen of Speed and Desert Race. Back over to the far end of Gunbarrel Juntion again, a B&M hyper, "Vigilante" Another shot of "Vigilante" And finally, an overview of Gunbarrel Junction... ...and of Stratford Square and Kyoshi Village. Hope you enjoyed! Edited October 12, 2011 by mcjaco
Schotcher Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Great first park! I like your rides, but maybe in your next park space out your coasters a bit more? Your 10th picture (The one with the Invert, Giga, and Hyper) are so close together (At least for major coasters). Just seems like you sorta ran out of space, and you tried to fit as much as possible in that space. Also, for the GIB, change your custom support color to the duller yellow, very bright. But other than that great park! And I adore your mine train/log flume, works perfectly!
jzoole Posted October 11, 2011 Author Posted October 11, 2011 Thanks for the feedback! You're right, I totally ran out of space. I'm really bad about making my square to small when I create the scenario, and it kind of turned into a Hersheypark situation, where I was cramming things in lol. And I'll definitely take your advice on the yellow supports
jimidarudenu Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Great park! I truly admire your terrain work. The mountainside appeal makes for a fantastic park. I would agree that the log flume and mine train rides look fantastic intermingling together. I can see where one would think the Vekoma was painted a bit on the loud side, but I think it enhances the section of Gunbarrel Junction. It gives the rustic, rural area a nice bit of brilliant colour. It makes Gunbarrel Junction say "Hey! Look at me. I'm diverse!" Your collection of roller coasters is quite refined. It appears as though you have something for all types of thrill seekers. Not too heavy on aoy one specific manufacturer. In addition, props on the highly themed water feature roller coaster in your medieval sectoion. On the whole, this park is a fantastic find. Can't wait to see more.
griffonj2022 Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 I remember making a dive machine in RCT3 when I was about 11 named Ryu... Stole my name man! Anyways, the park is really cool. I'm not the best in RCT2, as RCT3 is more my thing, but the wooden coaster built into the mountainside is genius. I really love the hopping in and out of the ground! Keep up the good work!
jzoole Posted October 11, 2011 Author Posted October 11, 2011 Awesome, thanks And crap, I thought I was being original with Ryu! Well sort of. It's kind of a rip-off of Tatsu.
paradisecoaster Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Only thing left here is to put out the last scenery, and then you're good to go. Very nice park.
