ash.1111 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 (edited) UPDATES: PAGE 2 / 3 NEW! ------------------------------------------------ Over the past few months I have been developing a version of 'Disney's Hollywood Studios' using Sketchup. Now, it's not based on a real park, but some of the facades, rides and attractions are based on actual creations in various Disney parks around the world. Thoughts? (BTW, the park is still 'under construction', so please keep that in mind when commenting on certain facades/areas) More photos will be uploaded soon...

Coaster Cow Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Now THIS is what I want to be able to do with Sketchup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Mad_Hatter Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 That's ultra cool and very creative. Well done. I can't wait for more! Great concept, I love it so far. Kind of like a "bite sized" Disney park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califolf Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 This amazes me, you must have quite a lot of time to do this on SketchUp. And the concept of making a compact, 'abridged' Disney park is, in my opinion, quite novel! Keep it up! ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueerRudie Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Outstanding job with the graphics and arrangements of your 'theoretical' park- If I were an investor, I'd definitely be taking notice- as it's easily worth the attention to detail you have placed in it. (My only complaint is about who you've got on the "Rock and Coaster" ride... Use ANYBODY (Barry Manilow, or Wayne Newton, or Milli Vanilli... but PLEASE- get rid of No Doubt...) Keep up the good work- I really want to see how this park turns out! R.D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightbeawannabe Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Amazing work! How long have you been at this? My only real complaint is that everything follows a grid...change the way ToT faces maybe, I think it'll make it look more 'Disney.' Or possible make the intersecting street not quite perpendicular, maybe a 70 degree angle, just something to break it up a bit. I love what you already have, though!

Danicka51 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 This is great why don;t you make it on Rct3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash.1111 Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 Drawing at angles like 70 degrees are a tad harder. It's do able, but on a ride like Tower of Terror, it'd become a lot more work. The reason I wanted to use Sketchup over RCT was that I could actually design facades and not have to 'place' items/objects to construct buildings and facades. Sketchup gives you 500% more freedom. I've been working on this park for a few months. I normally open it up and do a bit of work each day. Also, thank you all very much for the positive feedback!

ash.1111 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Here are some updated photos of the project. I have finished the area near the ToT entrance, and am starting work on the actual tower. The lift doors will open to allow riders to see out.

Dotrobot Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 It lags like crap right? I have great memories with Sketchup. Some of my models got front page actually. Check out models by scotchtape and scotch designing industries. I made them when i was a bit younger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash.1111 Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Actually, the performance isn't too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorkscrewFoley Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Really? Really now? Dude, this is fantastic! The attention to detail is outstanding. Can't wait to see more--when it's ready--i don't like to rush anyone when it comes to something creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash.1111 Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Thanks! I've redesigned some of the themeing. Does this look better? If so, I'll continue with this design on the other sides and then add the windows (a big task!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Mad_Hatter Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I'm really enjoying this project. The tower looks great, I love all the cracks and details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash.1111 Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 I have done A LOT of work to the park in the last few months. The entrance has been expanded, I have redesigned the Tower of Terror and am also working on a stunt show to replace one of the old sound stages. Thoughts? If you'd like to see detailed shots of any attractions, let me know. I have redesigned and added to a lot of the facades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash.1111 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 It's been ages since I have posted an update, so here it is. I have done A LOT of work since my last update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molemaster43 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I believe this is the first time I've checked out this park and I absolutely love it. The theming and detail all around is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderLock Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 ...this wants me to learn Sketchup, so bad. Like, take a bunch of courses on it. This makes using AutoCAD look even slower than it already is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
australianalex Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Looks brilliant, awesome park and not too unrealistic for Australia (e.g not a huge park with a million rides). Hope you're still working on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash.1111 Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 Thanks, guys! I will have to post an in-depth photo tour soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintballer Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Yep, gotta learn sketchup now! My Anim8or skeelz will help right? right guys?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash.1111 Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 So, it's LONG time for an update. Here's a quick overview of my current park. I think I need to post an in-depth update soon, though. White = current work Pink = planned work Would LOVE some feedback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
