We've got loads of musicians and metal fans in this community! Let's all start a band, haha - nice playing!

I believe I've given you most of my pointers on the set in private when you asked but Kablary does bring up a good point that I've never really noticed with this set - some of the elements themselves do get lost in the background which only strengthens the recommendations I gave you regarding the set. Right now to me, it looks a bit empty as you have scattered pieces everywhere - the individual elements themselves are fine and look nice but I feel you need an overarching structure to tie it all together to make it feel a bit more cohesive. The other recommendation I believe I gave you is that the set needs a bit more verticality to it, the current one is very horizontal and low... having a bit taller centerpiece with maybe some other elements coming out of it can tie this entire set together. When building symmetrically shaped sets like this one, all the elements on the left and right sides should suck your eye in and focus your view on the grand centerpiece. Improving on that centerpiece will definitely add so much more to this set! Also, I just remembered that this was a logo I made for you waaaaaay back then and completely forgot, I was so confused why you gave me props but I remember now 🤣

Ahhh such a cool little short show!! Super infectious - loved how colorful it was and that laser work is still the showstopper! Real shame about the lag during the camera movements, you need to upgrade your machine! What a triumphant short show to return to pyro for you, just a flat-out colorful show that is just exactly what it is - a bite of fun. Nailed it right on the head with this one, super excited to see how you can transition that fun feeling into the other main elements of your other short shows such as bark and horror. Congrats on finishing your first show after all these years, even if it is just a tiny one - a big achievement! The only thing that I can say as an improvement is to really fill that sky with pyro, especially on the very big obvious beats. Your groundwork was stellar but man, that laser work is what really steals the show. And to think you didn't even play much with lasers before this! Congrats on finishing this fun bite, super excited for your next ones!!

Super cool project! It's like a modern electrified Oz city... hope to see more of this project in the future!

Given that you worked on this show for such a short span of time I'll save most of the advice points I would give but I can only echo what has been said so far - despite not being a big fan of this type of music your ability to maintain that high energy for a 4-minute song is always impressive. I do agree with Kablary on the lighting, the lighting throughout the show was a bit bright and it washed away some of the nice big-impact moments you had and blanded out some of the color schemes. Given that this is using the same set as 'The Call' I can only compare to it and could offer up a few points: - I noticed the camera was static the entire show, I know you were having some issues with this new recording method and moving the camera and you created this show in such a short time but never underestimate the dynamics that a moving camera can have on a show. Shows can get very boring very quickly, moving the camera keeps the viewer engaged and tricks them into always seeing a "new angle of the show", which in turn keeps them more engaged and entertained! - Batteries, batteries, batteries! I know this has been brought up before but it has been a recurring theme I've noticed in most of your shows - would love to see you stray away from using so many batteries and to hand choreograph some of the sections. I understand this type of music can get repetitive - which is the perfect time to use batteries - but I would be very interested to see a more hand-crafted intimate choreography to see what you can really do. You're not miss-using the batteries, I just think there's too much of a reliance on them - Interact more with the set: I noticed most of your laser placements were emitting around the same style and position throughout the show. Like I said before since this is using the same set as 'The Call' I can only compare to it but in that show, I had laser cones coming out from the top of the tower along with banner lasers throughout the back of the set - would be really cool to see more interaction with the set, though I did love what you did with the LED walls. Just a couple of points I noticed but it is a very well-done show for such a short time, excited to see what you do next!

Awesome tutorial - thanks for sharing! For those that have Photoshop, it has a similar tool to this to stitch together photos to make a panorama shot. The process is generally the same as well!

Oh these came out awesome! I also saw you posted a tutorial on how to do this - super useful! This is looking like another winning coaster, m'lord.

Awesome to see progress and super cool to see your process - great job as always!

The park entrance looks so spot on! Awesome work so far, loving how everything is looking!

Oh exciting, the next one we are getting is a woodie! The set looks very interesting, you can probably do a lot of awesome things with that set and fire effects. Also, I demand you build a burning man on top of that spire on the right and then burn it during your show, please.

Man, this whole area of your park gives me such strong backlot tour attraction vibes... miss that ride so much. Such a cool idea for an interactive ride, kinda wish it was real so I could try it 😅

That woodie is huuuge - loving these night shots!

Tower of Terror! My favorite ride, it's so gorgeous and beautiful.. just look at her looming over the entire park. Nice to see this posted here, excited to see future updates!

The sheer realism of those streets is amazing, looks like a real render from a professional 3D engine software. Amazing work!

Hahahaha, oh Kablary... 🤐

Woo, some animals in the zoo! No idea what a caracal is but looks cool, haha 🤣

Really neat idea with the buried structures gives me lots of ideas for really cool parks that I will probably never do, haha - looks amazing so far! The overview shot at night really shows the scope of everything!

I demand any unused set you have to be immediately transported to me for future use. Kthxbye ☺️

Ah okay that's what I originally thought it was gonna be, you can tell by that tall tower they have in the concept. Looks interesting! Great share - thanks for posting it here!

I know you've been here for a bit already so let me be the first to officially say welcome to ParkCrafters! 😅 Some of these shows really bring back some memories - your sets have always been some of my favorites! You should also share that NoLimits 2 coaster that you made... Pterodactyl I think it was called? That was an insanely cool project!

What the heck is supposed to be Electropolis?

Oh I think I know which one this is 🤩 VERY cool to see a new bookworm WIP project after so long, ridiculously excited to see this one! Before I clicked on this topic, I thought it was about the older Ilyxr show that n7 made, Siren haha. SHOW N7 UP, MAKE THE BETTER SIREN! (I want to rub it into his face in the future)

Now those are some sexy shots, the colors are pretty incredible too. This short show of your series is supposed to be fun, so I love how fun your color schemes are - especially in that last shot! Excited to see the full show!!
