Island Feedback and Showcase Thread

right now, i'm trying to recreate my original rivers & & some of the original cliffs... to be honest, i liked my original map :>
wish my luck o_O
Best of luck to getting it back to how you liked it.
Hopefully you have some pics to go off

Hello, could I get some advice for improving these areas where I have nothing but a straight road? I'm really not sure how to make them less.. boring? Criticism for the rest of the island is welcome as well, I just finished remodeling (still a ton of flowers to plant/breed though)

For long roads like that I sometimes place plants, or rocks on the side, but so it's still accessible. On my old island zi used a cotton candy stand lol

Like in your second, or third picture adding like a rock, statue, sign. Something like that would look nice, add a little character

Thought I love the paving, it's so pretty. Is it your own design?

That's a great idea, thank you! And no, not my own design, here is the creator
 
Before and after some redesign:

I think it looks too busy now, but I like having more color. I am thinking removing some bamboo might help, and maybe adding another tile pattern, but does anyone have any thoughts/ advice?

I had that issue with a pathway to my villager's houses. I kinda had to chop down a few trees, but added little designs of logs, or mushrooms, left some of the stumps, for sitting

I left the trees that were on the side though. So maybe find a customer designed forest path, or make your own like I did, right towards the stairs

sorry, I was unclear, I was thinking of adding some square tiles to go with the patterns already there (similar to the before picture but more colorful). I liked how it looked before, But thought it looked kind of boring and basic. Now I am trying to balance out more interesting with too busy… (and still not sure whether this area needs to make more sense)

but thank you for your advice, nonetheless. I appreciate you taking the time!

I am going to try digging up some bamboo to see how it looks without it without having to wait for days to grow it back if I don’t like the less bamboo look.

Maybe instead of eliminating the bamboo you could swap some out for stunted bamboo for some height and color variation?

I would add seating-benches and table and chair set ups in place of some of the bushes every so often.

Hey! I was wondering if someone (or multiple people?) Could swing round to my island ☆woofbark☆ and help me figure out what to do with some of the more awkward spaces on my island? I've got a bunch of places that really need the help 😅 I had so many ideas initially but now I'm left with lots of random areas that I dont know what to do with. (Had the game since April so theres a few place holder areas till I can get items I want)

mostly in these areas:
Orchard
Island in middle of island (with dino)
Space outside residential row of houses/cafe
Space inbetween farm and pottery
Any of the beaches

The theme is dark cottagecore or rustic/forestcore 😊 and I'm still in the process of moving the houses on the beach/replacing some villagers.

Happy to set up a dream address or a dodo
I'd love to check it out if you set up a dream address

Ah, sorry about reading it wrong, but happy to give advice lol
 
i'm doing a jobs/things that they can have list for my villagers...

fuschia owns a pumpkin farm/orchard, maple owns a libary,
sally helps maple with it & lives next door to her,
ketchup owns a flower shop, goldie owns a fruit-juice stand & lives next door to fuschia
& lobo looks after the flowers i'm keeping for my oc, penny...

what could marshal, blanche, rudy & stitches have, i wonder? :unsure:

I have Marshal as a designer, like clothing. Which my town, he makes, also is the prince in my lore.

In my old town he owned his own place, but mainly made clothes for his boyfriend.

So a clothing shop? You could look up the characters individually, and see what their goals are

i know what their goals are, mostly... but i'm not really worrying about their goals, to be honest ... :>

i just want to give them, whatever would suit them well :>
 
Maybe, or he could have his own stand? He strikes me as someone who wants to make their own mark

Still wants to be famous, but with his own brand
 
Blanch could have maybe a tea shop? Or coffee in general. Looking very elegant, and formal. The video I saw her in, she was very regal

Honestly not sure about Rudy, hes like a free spirit. Maybe he could help someone. But he would be like a peddler in my lore, or maybe knight

Stitches... Um, like a bug stand? Bug pet shop? I've had a fish pet shop before. He also really loves them? Or blush bug shop lol

Lazy dont strike me as being a very dedicated worker. Filbert is a flimsy mage, and Sherb helps Chief. So maybe he helps someone.

ooh... a tea shop 'would' be good for blanche :> that'd give me a excuse to put a smaller version of my cinnamoroll cafe back, renaming it ' the cinnamoroll tea shop ' :>

i think rudy could help marshal :> he likes to paint/draw after all... he could help him with his designs :>

& i think stitches likes ladybugs & butterflies :> but i think he's not keen on the other types of bugs... so i think a bug pet shop actually 'would' be nice for him :>
