Your animals had some impeccable timing while you were showing off the habitats, especially the zebras and African wild dogs through the windows. All of your tips about sightlines and drawing your guests to certain exhibits are super helpful! Can't wait for the next episode ❤
Thank you so much :D I'm probably going to continue the series in this fashion, where I start by showing of what I've build and then explain the "science" behind it as it seems people really enjoy it!
This zoo feels so familiar, even though it is a brand new series. I felt like there was a memory of myself walking around an African zoo section coming back to me, when I watched this, and that is really an indication of, how good you are at putting stuff like this together.
The thing about trying to make African architecture in this game without just a bunch of mud huts is that when you google image search “African architecture” it’s all just mud huts.
Luckily there are more zoos out there that are doing different things! Sedgewick, Animal Kingdom, Beekse Bergen, Planckendael, etc. to name a few. My next project will feature a village much more inspired by the architecture used there 😉
Impeccable conceived and executed as always. Very excited to see this new approach your taking, and glad my AWD variant commission is getting some proper use 😉lol. Gabboi is a true artist and Mod Icon, he never disappoints!Can’t wait for the next episode 🤩
Great work Iben, I'm looking forward to see what the future of this zoo holds,, and of course, it's deserving of an Australian National Anthem Australians all let us rejoice For we are one and free We've golden soil and wealth for toil Our home is girt by sea Our land abounds in nature's gifts Of beauty, rich and rare In history's page let every stage Advance Australia fair In joyful strains then let us sing Advance Australia fair Beneath our radiant Southern Cross We'll toil with hearts and hands To make this Commonwealth of ours Renowned of all the lands For those who've across the seas We've boundless plains to share With courage let us all combine To advance Australia fair In joyful strains then let us sing Advance Australia fair
Wow! Really lovely work here Iben. I'm really excited to the next episode. I'm a hoofstock enjoyer, so i got really inspired by the Watusi exhibit. But overall, beautiful work with the village
The village is great!! It looks like the perfectly realistic way a zoo would create a village such as this, really also like the view point for the zebra exhibit! (I SWEAR I wrote the next part before you started talking about THIS EXACT ZOO :D ) There is a zoo in Germany called "Zoom" that has an African section and they actually start you out with a village that is more of a jungle kind of village, I just felt like mentioning it, because I've just always loved them for going a different route with it! What is the floor made off by the way? I can't figure it out :D faux rocks, decals and temple pieces is my guess :D ALSO PUPPIES 🥰🥰 No seriously, this is like an inofficial tutorial on view-points, just wow 💛
Thank you so much :D I might actually take a look at how they've done their jungle village, as I'd love to use that for the rainforest section of this area. The paths were indeed a mix of the temple pieces, grunge and moss decals!
That Mongoose/Porcupine exhibit is one of my favourite Planet Zoo exhibits I've ever seen. Absolutely gorgeous
Thanks buddy! ❤
Amazing build. I really like the invisible and natural barriers and how the enclosure are looking like one big exibit.
Thank you so much! I'm going to try to continue that feeling throughout the zoo :D
HYPE!
HYYYYYPPEEE!

This is a massive compliment and one that is going to influence the direction of the zoo going forward. Thank you so much Bert, I appreciate it a lot!

@@Iben thanks for the pointers, I’m debating doing a massive overhaul on my African section so I’ll have to check those zoos out for inspiration.

Glad to hear that :D And thank you for commissioning it, I must admit that I missed the old red/orange variants a bit, so this really works wonders!
Fantastic work as always love the porcupine exhibit and the zebras too!
Thanks Sam, as always :D
Great work Iben, I'm looking forward to see what the future of this zoo holds,, and of course, it's deserving of an Australian National Anthem

Oh that's supercool to hear! Hope you'll enjoy the next episodes just as much!
Damn! It looks amazing, love the layout and especially the view of the flamingo and the massive lake behind it, can’t wait for the next episode🙌
I'm not going to lie, it's one of my favourite views as well :D Thanks Bucorvus, appreciate your comments as always 🙌

Enforcing stereotypes again I see...jk, really like this area, especially the seamless barriers.
Godfreakin' 😂 Glad you liked it buddy :D
6:30, but is it potable for guests?
Hahaha, no I don't think so :D
