Vondell's Zoos

[(Trustee)ZooGrammy]

I'll have to check my stash of pictures.

Good news everyone! I've gotten access to my old postimg account and there's a good amount of screenshots from this thread in there! I'll go back and update the posts when I get time to go through them, but until now here's some screens from the unfinished zoo in that first post (the sauropsid zoo).

 

"ZOO" topiary park and flamingoes.

 

Ostriches & covered walkway.

 

This was from back when I had just finished the Aldabra tortoises!

 

Komodos & Saltwater crocs.

 

Second view of that.

 

The odd Sea Turtle tank with the aviary cage sides.

 

And I found some shots from a few other various builds:

Showcase of the concrete wall set from way back when (I think these are available in my Google Drive folder in my signature.)

 

I think this was a preview shot for the Cattails.

 

The preview image for the Red Panda from the example zoo I made for them.

 

These are wide shots from the red panda example zoo, based on Caddienoah's Urbanville Wildlife Park workbench -- the first is downscaled, blurry, and hard to make out, but I don't seem to have another copy of it -- the second is full size and crisp.

 

Example builds for showcasing the Green Algae (available in the Google Drive, not sure if they made it to release here?)

 

Preview image of various prehistoric foliage I made for P.Rex's "No Grass Please" Dino Digs mod in action, these are also available individually in the Google Drive.

 

The next few are from the "Route 66" themed zoo map from a contest I was part of a couple of years ago with the Firebirds.

The zoo starts in "Chicago" and ends at the "Santa Monica Pier" with a road in between that passes over biome areas the real Route 66 passes through. I loved setting this up!

 

 

 

 

Not sure if anyone else has pictures of the finished zoo (this is just the base map) but this is the zoo our "Route 66 Caddy" download was made for, that's the only thing I have screenshots of from the build itself.

 

 

 

I also found several fairly recent shots on my PC that I must not have posted in this thread at all, they've got Khaydar's and Borsato's animals in them so they must be from earlier this year.

 

Insect house & surrounding exhibit with Arthropleura.

 

False Killer Whale setup with sunken viewing area and raised viewing deck.

 

Area with flowerbed parks and Firehawke's Greenhouse Complex.

 

"Vendor area" with market stall.

 

This isn't everything I lost from this thread, I don't seem to have any of the shots from the "Horsetail Island Wildlife Park" from page 2, but maybe someone else has some screenshots saved from that.

 

Better than nothing though!

Thanks again for the kind words.

Amazing  exhibits and landscaping!   for this zoo!

[(Trustee)ZooGrammy]

Fantastic as usual.  You have very unique building skills.   Collected all of these for my study.   I especially liked the algae and the Killer whale.

You not only have a talent for animal and plant design...but one for total zoo design too! Your screens are amazing!

Another of Vondell's unique screenshots.    This is his scary zoo.   I couldn't upload it as it is an animated gif.

Great pics Vondell! I am very interested using those concrete walls (image with the waterfeature). Do you still have those? and would that be possible?

[(Designer)Vondell]

sure! there's a zip of all of them here and here's a matching incline piece.

Fantastic! thanks Vondell

If you think of other aviary/glass/high wall pieces that you have, i am always keen !
