Woodland Peak Resort

[Rtoups]

I have gotten requests to post my new park here on VF, so without further delay, I present Woodland Peak Resort!
The Story
The park was originaly pitched by legin949. Going under the alias "Jeremy Jones", he announced that a new park was being built in a recently grown forest. With the name Woodland Peak Resort, that park was supposed to consist of both a theme park and water park. Jeremy Jones was handing out jobs to certain people. I eventually got a job, a very small one. I was backup logo maker. The resort was doing fine, until January 20, 2007, when legin949 stated that he was bored and finished with the park, and he was offering anybody else to take it over. I immediatly pitched in, and the rights to the park and name became mine.

The Park
Update 1:
The logo

The entrance is the only thing done right now. How can I take away the default entrance and replace it with green arrows?:

The first part of the entrance is the baggage check. Here is a close up of the stalls.

Here is a small parking lot and staff break room.

The entrance and exit to Buzzsaw. I will add streams of water coming out of the pillars once I get NF particle effects.

Two other rides that have been added. Mine Shaft and Mine Shaft Junior. Mine Shaft is the big one.

Update 3. 2/8/07

A shooting gallery has sprouted up across from Buzzsaw. Guests take fake rifles and fire at bright red targets.

Woodland Peak has added Baby Buzzsaw for the younger crowd.

Watch out! A Buzzsaw coaster car zooms down the first hill.

I leave you with a beautiful shot of the Buzzsaw queue and the coaster in the background.

Update 4. 2/13/07
I am going to remove Mine Shaft and Mine Shaft Junior to make room for other attractions.

I added a small house in the middle of Baby Buzzsaw, just to add some more atmosphere.

and some wooden supports on the lift hill.

I have started on my brand new attraction, and the most detailed. Sespe Creek is a water transport ride that goes past some of the sights you might pass in the wilderness. Here is a shot of the ride so far. I will be adding much more trees and other things, this is just what I got started today.

A boat passes a small town near the creek. A pier offers row boats for rental, and picnic benches in the back allow for a relaxing lunch on weekend afternoons.

A beautiful shot of the coastal town!

I hope that parking lot is a staff parking lot and not guest lot, 1 bc of the fence, and 2 bc its so freakin small. Even for staff lot its small, but at least its realisitc. This is a very nice little park can't wait to see more

[soyboy]

Ooh, nice!:biggrin:
One thing I don't like, you have a baby coaster for every ride you got. What's up with that?
Well anyways, Good Luck and it looks good so far!:smile:

[Kileli]

wow, i really like it! i wish i could do this!

[Rtoups]

Ryguy-Ya thats all I had time to do that day!

Soyboy-what else am i supposed to do with the space? Plus, some of the names are cool.

kileli-Thank You!

[stevo505]

I Love it! It's really cool, and this seems like it will turn out very nicely! Two thumbs up!

Put flat rides where these are! Simple, easy solution. But you should keep one. Anyway, great park!!! I look forward to seeing more!

The Mine Shaft and Mine Shaft Junior have been replaced with a new ride, Forest Spinner.

A new section had been added to Sespe Creek. A tribe of natives dance in their village after hauling in a big catch with their canoe.
http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h30/skimboarderRCT/Shot0081.jpg

Behind the canoe, an aquatic cave lurks with mystery and danger.

A night shot.

[ryguy222]

Im so scared becuase there must be something in the cave, even though its against the park boarder! IM SO SCARED!!!! LOL
Nice use of the water effects wall, i like those, but i don't see the point of the acryllic like wall thats supposed to go in front.

[Rtoups]

I didnt like the reflecting background, so I just removed it completely. Check out this update too see what I did.

Opening doors have been added to Buzzsaw in the front and back of the station.

Various plants and scenery have been added to the natives section. I also textured the terrain a bit. The outrigger has been replaced with a more conventional canoe.
http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h30/skimboarderRCT/Shot0084.jpg

The new "cave". Well now its not really a cave anymore.
http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h30/skimboarderRCT/Shot0085.jpg

After making the turn after the natives section, riders see a mysterious lighthouse jutting out into the water on a rocky peninsula. The lighthouse is supposedly haunted. Mist surrounds the base and blue lights flicker on and off randomly.

Continued in next post. I have to many images.

After the lighthouse, a fishing pier extends into the creek. A town will be added later.

Small Update 3/2/07
Ok I got on for a bit and worked on the park. I decided to take a break from Sespe Creek. When I have more time, I will work on it.
What's this? It seems a new building has popped up next to the shooting range.
http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h30/skimboarderRCT/Shot0090.jpg
Woodland Peak welcomes it first restaurant, The Glasshouse. I like it because it is very old seeming, but the glass and slanted roofs help make it seem contemporary. I will add tables and stuff later.
http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h30/skimboarderRCT/Shot0091.jpg
I added some arches on Forest Runner, which is now called Forest Thunder.

[ryguy222]
