Cool! Agreed with Kablary, there are so few Universal recreations out there. Haven't been to that park in forever (rip Twister </3) You have a great start so far, the iconic arches look awesome!

Will you also be doing Islands or just Universal for now? Would love to see someone do VelociCoaster!

there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really

Oh, wow! This is mighty impressive!

The fact that RCT3 continues to surprise me with the things it can do, and still do, is unbelievable.

I seriously can't wait to see what else you're able to do.

Thanks for sharing!

There's a great, big, beautiful tomorrow; shining at the end of every day.

Thanks so much! Currently I am focused on Universal Studios Florida, but my long-term plan is to recreate all of Universal Orlando Resort.

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

there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really

I'm still in shock with how good you can make this game look!

I know most of this is all cs, but you've managed to recreate Universal Studios beautifully!

The large billboards are awesome! hahaha

They are! Darknight has a partner also working on this but is focusing on the show in the lagoon by @SJR95 - they also posted it here on ParkCrafters, looks like a really cool project so far!

Wonderful job so far! I can't wait to see the details!

Thank you! This project is very detail focused when it comes to bringing it to life.

Awesome start! Studio parks are definitely difficult to do, but considering this is a recreation you got a great reference to go from. So far you are nailing it!!

Thanks Cody! Appreciate your continued support on this project. Look forward to seeing more of your Hollywood Studios Park as well.

Thanks! Thats actually the goal with this project, so I'm glad I am living up to the standard. 😀 And yeah, I have gotten very creative with billboard use as you will see in the upcoming updates for the park.

Looks good so far!  I can’t wait to see what you do with the center area with the lagoon.  Are you going to try and put a show in there?

Thanks! As @wolfpaw mentioned already, I am collaborating with @SJR95 on a project to bring the former nighttime spectacular to the lagoon. In the upcoming updates you will see progress in that area of the park as I am in the process of restructuring the shape of the lagoon in preparation for the show.

That is all for Update #2! Let me know what you think and get ready to see New York in the next update. Also, if you are wondering about Minion Land that is a project that will be coming soon. As this recreation is meant to be a current and accurate representation of the park, the Minion Land will be taking over and Minion Cafe along with Villain Con will be new additions in the near future.

This is so crazy accurate, I haven't been to Universal since like 2012 but I easily remember how it all looks and you're nailing it perfectly!
