Island Feedback and Showcase Thread

Does anyone have ideas or inspo for a gothic island entrance? I'd like to try something new The resident services is straight across from the airport but there's not a lot of distance between them. It's something like 15 squares. TIA!
 
This is my hotel. I’m really proud of this. My apologies if the pictures are small. The main room is the lobby. The three rooms and the upstairs are the guest rooms. Each include a bedroom and a bathroom. The downstairs is the guest laundry room with some housekeeping supplies. The Rover suitcases really add to the fact that the rooms are occupied.

I like it! The blue wavy floor pattern looks really nice and the rooms look clean and simple (in a good way). I’d stay in this hotel ;)

for some reason I particularly like the basement with the laundry and snack machines.

thanks for sharing!
 
i want to put stitches house & the plush shop here... so that neither him or rudy will be lonely... but now i'm wondering if it's too close to the musuem or if i'll need to move him to where the musuem currently is & move the musuem somewhere...

note: the musuem is just next to rudy's house which is in the top- corner of the screenshot...
 
I’m thinking of making a rainbow garden. My goal is to organize and thin out the flowers that have taken over my island. Has anyone tried making a rainbow garden or meadow before? How’d it go?

i only have white, yellow & pink cosmos, blue & white windflowers & blue pansys, yellow tulips & a yellow lily, so far, though... no orange cosmos, purple hyacinths or pink tulips yet, though...

I have one of roses.
It was a bit of a pain trying to fill it out as I needed to breed more of certain colours.
Also, the blue roses didn't really fit in anywhere which ruins the effect a bit but space wise, I had another row I had to fill out.

I think if youre going to try to use more than 1 type of flower, you're going to want to use a guide, or plan it out in advance as I think that would get quite complicated.
 
if anyone wants to see my DA, until i update it again, please feel free to, cause i'm going to work on it to be a pastal kidcore island :>

also... if anyone has a capture card, i'd love it if you'd take footage of my island, for me, as it is now :>

my DA is in my signiture :3
 
I have been having fun with the wedding items. I’m not sure how to place the ramp: it just doesn’t look right.

The game isn't letting you center the ramp, huh? That's a shame. Have you decided if you like the placement of the ramp yet? Perhaps it'll look nicer with the wedding arch were it's at in the picture; and a plant at the bottom right of ramp. The Forsythia has a blue base and gold foliage.

Unless you want Lobo to be a guardian or grandpa figure, I would keep looking. Even the inside of his is too "mature" or park ranger looking, imo. Some other suggestions for Cranky villagers would be:
  • Murphy (cub) - Has a pastel green color scheme and the inside of his house is woodsy. The outside looks like a light brown log cabin. His goal is to be a teacher.

  • Vladimir (cub) - His body color and house are pink, but not everyone likes his appearance. His goal is to be a movie director. Unfortunately, the inside of his house looks like a construction site in a city.

  • Fang (wolf) - You probably already know his color scheme but it's mostly light grey, cream at the tips, and purple eye shadow. His goal is to be a hair stylist. Unfortunately the inside of his house is too stylish looking, but the exterior wall is creme color.

Here's a complete list of cranky villagers. Link

I tried a few times and yea it won’t let me center it. I haven’t figured out where to put it yet so it’s just sitting in my inventory until I do. I might have to make it one tile bigger or smaller but I worry it won’t look even if I do that. I placed some carnations around I might add a few more of those.

in the back on my mind, i think that's what i was thinking for lobo when i decided on pastal kidcore... the guardian/dad figure... i like fang too... but i have poppy for a stylist... but there's the problem... i don't have any use for a stylist shop... that's why i dumped that shop idea... that's why she helps out at the libary :>

so, i think, lobo it is... :>




also.. about the areas i want to do :> : there is a couple of features i want to put in...
i went to a musuem that i remember going to with my class at school... & we had to go by train... so i was thinking of putting a train track near the front of my island... having a pipe at it & the musuem & using that as the actual ''train'' :>

so the musuem will probably be more or less near the back of the island, maybe :>



another question: what do you think i should do with my orchard? :unsure:

Yes, if you use them as a border. That’s how I block my hybrids from spawning.

That sounds like a fun idea. It looks like there are some designs for the face cutout standee. I only gave them a brief glance but I think that they’re complete. Maybe you can put the pipe behind one of those.

Another suggestion would be using one of those tin can things as a train. Here’s an example.

As for the orchids, they seem fine to me. If you’re tight on space, maybe you can reduce the number of orchids that you have; or make sure that they are evenly spaced out.

On my island I have 5 trees of each fruit. However, I will eventually need to move them closer because I noticed that I didn’t plant them evenly.

No worries. Here, I’ll give you an example.
MA-6033-7012-8416. The person has all three parts of the “train” face-cutout standee in their Pro Designs section.

great :>

i'll check it out :>

edit at 6:48 pm: it looks really good... i think i'll use it later when i get to that part :3
