Condor's Exhibit Design

Welcome to my first topic. I will be showing a multitude of exhibit designs in this topic going forward. You will notice that I blend realistic zoo exhibit style with natural twists. One thing I try to do, with each exhibit no matter how big or small, is something unique (But perhaps not original, you are all amazing designers) so look out for those. I normally look here for ideas for my own exhibits, but I figured, if I'm making them, might as well show them too right? Keep in mind, I do not make zoos, so my pictures will not be a part of a zoo, more of a section of a zoo that could be? Meh, here is my first exhibit to show.

Cave Entrance

Exterior

This was a very simple enclosure, total build time was 2 hours 20 minutes start to finish. I used 146 objects and four animals.

The cave was not easy, I think I fussed with that thing for an hour alone, but the rest I kept simple. If there is interest I will post a new one tomorrow.

That is an excellent exhibit!!
All that time spent doing it was worth it IMO, and the end result was fantastic. :)
Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.

Thank you all for your comments!

As promised, here is the second exhibit. This exhibit is heavily inspired by an exhibit housing elk that I saw once upon a time, however I am using the deer from EE for this one. I replicated the forests of Washington here, heavy in ferns, fallen logs and green trees.

Deer

Thicket

Log Pile Fence

Total build time 1 hour 40 minutes with 560ish objects used with four animals. Thankfully it went smoothly the first time. Normally the engine tries to fight with me when I do strange things to terrain, lucked out this time.

The log pile is my favorite part and the unique part of the exhibit. Hope you like it!

(Yes, I love the Bean Plant, it's my favorite plant I have, works for everything lol )

I really love your building style, excellent work. ^^
For any of those remaining or wanting to remain in the community

Please visit websites Gaia or The Round Table. I doubt that many of you haven't already moved there, but I know stragglers do exist and I hope this guides you to where activity remains, should you still be interested in the game.

Thank you.

I can see you put alot of effort into that exhibit.
And for that, it all paid off for a great end result. :)
I love the foliage placement in the background, and the landscaping is excellent.

I really like those exhibits, Condor. =)

They are very realistic, they have a lot of foliage, and the scenery is beautiful.

And I especially like the red deer exhibit. :)

That exhibit is very realistic and is jam packed with foliage. I have to say, your zoos are quite successful.
