Yeah So i was going to make a sunset on the top right but maybe that isnt the best idea.
Any of you think something else would go better?
and on the giraffe should I re do it and put red doormats under it?

Ok, firstly try making the floor a dark brown since it'll look a lot more like ground.
Second maybe switch the red doormats with petals, or something that looks like grass. (And whats the red doormat on the giraffe for?)
Third, if possible put around some type of poster (maybe rainforest) around the room to make it look more outdoorish.
Ok on the other side i'd put lodge bars to make a barrier from the giraffe to the people, and i'd probably just put some benches and drink machines (maybe mocha or samovar) around to make it look like a sitting area so people can drink and look at the giraffe.
Hope this helps!

The stacking is so sexy that it turns me on :) lol. it looks great. Just add petals and posters to make it look outdoor-ish and it'll be great ;) I'd rep but I have to spread first xD

uhh thanks.
I was kind of going for more of the desert africa look without the green grass and stuff.
The reason the gound is red is beause originally I was going to have a sunset on the top which would make the ground red because of well yeah.
I dont want it to be like a zoo with a bar to keep people out if it.
I actually made it so you can walk up on top of the giraffe so people need to be near it.
I know the paint doenst really fit but I already had the room painted like that and thought I mite be able to let it slide.
But thanks for the help anways. I need to spread before I can +rep ya.

Oh, i never knew why the doormats were red. If your going to make it like a desert, then i think you should put in the sunset, it'd look better actually, but um, if you can you should try and change the paint.
For the other side, maybe just make it look more desertish, by trying to add another small animal in there or something.

Make it look like it's eating a yukka!

WOW,it took me a while to see it was a giraffe, so put Giraffe somewhere in the room name
AMAZING! Take away red mats on floor and maybe add lots of greenery

hmm everyone is saying I should put more green in it.
At first I was thinking it would be like desert and a sunset but people see it as more of a jungle.
I could take the pines out of my light house and use them here?
Make it look like it's eating a yukka!
That's a really good idea- stacked yukkas/pineapples would make it look like a giant tree the giraffe was eating from [If Giraffes do that lol]
Excellent stacking and good luck in the comp. Atm I rate it 7.5/10 cos the right side hasn't ben done yet, but rating the stacking 10/10 well done! :eusa_clap

Heres the new paint and pines.
Still need to think of something for the top.
maybe a river?
any ideas?

The reason the sky is light blue like that is that is how it is in every picture of africa and giraffes I could find.
it looks like a camel with a red hat on :)

Im sorry but i think the pines ruined it. No offence it just doesnt look right ? Maybe not use so many and switch a few for yukkas ? Pinapples to me remindme of the medittaranien not the desert. However yukkas do :)
9/10 With pines
The giraffe looks awesome :D

If you give it some more distinctive humps it might be like better :)
8/10 so far :)

I suggest Adding Some Bosnias And Some Yellow rugs After all you normally find them on Desert/Sandy areas like a Camel
Maybe even add 1 or 2 petals dont go overboard otherwise it gets to Crazy lol umm.. Dunno what else to add
maybe try make it look like its eating
Dudey!
10-09-2006, 04:19 PM
Nice room, you could put an imp on top, so people could dance on it? Just an idea, Dunno if it would spoil it.

Doesnt need a imp You can get on it
Click between the 2 Front lodge corners :D

The 'red hat' looks a little random i must say but im not quite sure what to suggest you replace it with as i think i know what effect you were going for with it, the hcs that have been added dont really suit the room, they may be in the right colour scheme but they defeat the realism, yukkas with with pines would look good as would a sunset poster surrounded by rainforests or himalayas ;)
9/10 just for the great stacking :o

Here is the version now.

I took off the red "hat"
and you can see the HCs
I know the HCs dont really fit in but It is good for people to be sitting rather then wondering around and blocking the paths.
I dont think it will get into the comp so i dont really want to trade for a bunch of posters and yukkas.
Anyways
if theres any quick ideas I might change it a little but I kinda dont want to spend too much more time on it.

Hmm ive said it before and ill say it again, W-O-W. I saw the room before it was finished and it looked good, but now its finished it looks amazing. Heres a idea for you, if you want to do ski slopes, DO THEM, your stacking capabilities in my thoughts would create a "Killer" slope with some white mats, you could easily make them into a sloping kind of wave with the techniques ive saw you do..

I kind of have the giraffe eating the pines
and I found out that I need more seats for people or things get cloged up.
So I made a grassy hill.

i love this room, and the hcs look great much better than when it was just the 4.
i can't believe you didnt get in, you should enter it for another country because it deserves to be in the top 10 at some point. I'm sure staff didn't check the rooms this week, looking at the ones they chose it must be some sort of random selection process.

Well i am absolutely amazed that it didn't. Its so original , innovative
and the effort that has gone in is enormous. The room that won has some
good design features but some that don't blend in at all. Hope there is a country that you can enter it for again. I didn't realise that Angola was last week and I am really shocked.:(

Excellent room Blinkey. Really creative and different to most of them.
Im shocked it didnt make it in, but keep trying as your rooms are very well done :)

Add a few rainforest posters randomnly around and it'll be 10/10.
Best room i've seen for years, seriously.
Never ever close it <3
PUT THE RED HAT BACK ON!!1!1111 You could've done black and white alternating for the neck, like stripes, but that would take ages.
9.6/10 +rep if possible
this room is better than all your other stacking rooms, because its actually a room, not a showcase of stacking, which i beleive is what Habbo are looking for as a winning room.

Wow thats good, Looks like a camel to me though.Lol
+rep 9/10 for it
You could have done rugs and cactii and lapland posrers for a desert
BL!NKEY
16-09-2006, 04:31 PM
haha this room was for like last week and it didnt win.
But still being commented on.
Since alot of people say it looks like a camel I think I will make one of the humps bigger and call it a camel and put desert cactuses and stuff around.....
Sound like a good idea?
Well if I have time.
I just got addicted to rollercoaster tycoon and havent been on habbo in a while.
