Review for Yukari Yakumo
Town: Gensokyo
DA: 4300-3991-1601

Liked:
- first off, I love the paths you used around your town tree! They work really well with the rainy atmosphere of your town
- love the bamboo arrangements/PWPs around town hall!! It fits the zen theme really well!
- not sure if this was intentional, but I liked how Ken's house was sort of hidden in the bamboo forest... suits the fact that he looks like a ninja haha
- all the dead trees around Stonehenge looked really cool!!

Reimu's House:
- sometimes I wasn't sure what you were going for? i.e. the left room, was that supposed to be like... a hotel room with a private bath or...? lol
- I liked the art in the back room, it looked like a painting/art studio to me maybe add like a... photo corner with the vintage camera and stuff like that?
- if you want to use Gracie stuff for the right room, maybe make it a posh lounge?
- wasn't sure if your upstairs and downstairs had themes...? I thought upstairs was heaven, and was expecting hell when I went into the basement lol

Yukari's House:
- use of customized furniture in main room was nice
- loved the bathhouse room!
- all the gyroids in the top room was a nice touch haha
- maybe hide the cicada in the back room behind something bigger? it brought a lot of atmosphere to the room though!
- was the basement some... summoning... room??? lol

Alice's House:
- the furniture customized to look like the night sky was really nice!
- fancy right room hehe
- the spa in the left looked so calming!!
- what was that doll doing upstairs lol...
- basement was a bit creepy, but in a cool way!!

Marisa's House:
- main room looked super cozy with the cabin stuff!
- the left room looked so sweet!
- right/back room looked a bit empty, maybe put some mushrooms (i.e. famous mushrooms) on the floor as decoration?
- top looks like you're going for a lab kind of look...? maybe add more bugs/fish and plants? and a diff. wallpaper like the jungle wall or something would look nice!
- not sure what was going on in the basement lol
- since your character was dressed like a witch, I was expecting like witchy... stuff in the house haha

------

Suggestions/Questions:
- I'm not sure why you have random snow paths...? lol and more bushes around the paths would help them look more finished imo!
- your flowers sometimes seem kinda randomly arranged, maybe try to have some more organization to how your flowers are placed?
- sometimes your paths are a bit hard to follow, esp the narrow ones;;
- the exterior of Yukari's house didn't seem that fitting...? and my exterior I mean like your roof choice and stuff.

Thanks Nammie.
I think the lounge idea is good(just don't know what would look nice...), and Ken's house was a happy accident.
People often mention the flowers, but I'm always confused about which ones. The ones in the bamboo are the only ones that come to mind, but those are intentionally random.
Yukari's roof is for fitting the character and Marisa's basement is a WIP until I decide what to do with it.

Likes:
-nice path
-city hall area
-train station area
-hot spring area
-entire southern section is very nice
-entire northern section is very nice

-Solaire's house: not sure what to make of it. I think it's some sort of castle/temple? Shall give neither Yay or Nay.

-Nack's house
*main: very nice
*right: hotel lounge/bar?
*back: office/study?
*left: cafeteria/hotel restaurant?
*basement: sapphire polka dots + ice furniture is nice; ice lounge?
*2nd floor: interesting. pave + sleek

Dislikes:
-tower was in an odd place; couldn't admire it very much.

Suggestions:
-tweek Solaire's house, at least so it's easier to understand what is being attempted
-move tower to spot where it'd be much more visible; wind mill/turbine/lighthouse might look better in that spot.

Final Thoughts: very nice. loved it. Improve Solaires and get to work on Pasche's house.

Rating: 4.5/5

Thank you for the hair buns. May I say? ... You have an amazing plant friendly town! It's absolutely lush with life! There are a few suggestions I have in mind to improve your town. I hope you understand what I am about to suggest:
I love your pink/blue brick path. However if you add in too many path designs... it makes your path too colorful. I think you should stick to the blue/pink brick path; instead of using a brown wooden planks here, a brown/blue water path there, and bright pink/green stone path everywhere. Too much of everything could look a bit messy.
I think you should fix the areas between the train station to the police station and around the campsite. The path next to the police-train station is confusing especially with the turns and twists. Also the path doesn't connect to anything by the police station which is strange. Next is: your campsite needs landscaping and path or it doesn't look very appealing.
I love the flowers and plants the most. So let's talk about how to improve your flower landscaping. Overall it's very colorful and lovely. However there are places where you have a pattern/theme of flowers and in the middle is a random flower. For example a pretty pattern of red and yellow cosmos and in the middle a random red pansy is sticking out. Please fix the red pansie so your flower patterns are consistent. Also you used too much of species and colors of flowers at certain areas of your town. For example your Cafe area is surrounded by orange+white+red pansies, red+yellow+pink cosmos, and black roses. I suggest you focus an large area like the cafe with one species of flower in 1-3 colors.
Finally let's move on to your houses... I love the flower room. It's very nice.
The mermaid room... you need to take out the flounder table and frog chair. Those furniture pieces doesn't fit in nicely with the mermaid series. I suggest pink regal series to fit in with mermaid series.
The polka dot room... the ABD, black cat, sunrise lamp are out of place. I suggest mushroom series to match with the polka dot series.
Your kitchen and bed room need upgrading. So at the time I won't be critiquing those rooms.
I'll give your town a score 7.5/10. I believe if you organized your flowers more and used less different path designs. Your town will look better. However I still love your green lush town. Thank you for letting me dream of your town.

thank you so much for the review! i really honsetly appreciate it! i do see what you're saying about how many path designs i have. i just really liked the bridgey/dock look of the wooden planks and thought they suited being over the water better than the courtyard design or the bricks did. i willl reconsider them though and perhaps find something that looks better. maybe pink wood, haha.

oh and the twisty-turny path from the train station to the police station is 100% on purpose. i'm not sure if you missed the sign there that said community garden? it's supposed to be a community garden area up there for villagers to plant whatever flowers they want. so it's not really a path between the two buildings since there's the straight brick path for that; it's just a garden path. maybe the sign isn't obvious though. xD i'll have to take another look there.

thanks again for the review!

Thanks for the review, I appreciate it. I see your point about the tower, I'll keep other places for it in mind.

My town is no where near complete (still breeding flowers and planting bushes and collecting various other things) but if someone wants to check it out I just updated it. I've just planted a lot of things so they aren't grown yet and you'll notice my breeding grounds and hybrid holes, but other than that my DA is 5400-3515-8043 and I just updated that like a few minutes ago.

Edit: Just realized I still had some stuff on the ground outside the train station, so just ignore that stuff.

You did a great job on decorating and I love the look and feel of your town. You can be proud of this! Your town is cute, royal and majestic. Making it a very girly but also stylish. Taking my tips/dislikes will make it, in my honest opinion, better!

Likes
- Nice path, I like how 'majestic' it feels, very royal-like!
- I like how you arrange your flowers, trees and bushes!
- Re-Tail area is very cute.
- Cafe area is cute and makes me feel like drinking coffee there again! It has a nice big 'entrance' <3
- Phoebe's 'entrance' is nice and luxury, I felt like a sloppy intruder entering with my pajama's! Haha :3

Suggestions
- Connect paths, like the area near the left bridge
- Maybe just use 2 paths instead of three. I like the one at your plaza the most! But perhaps that's just me.
- Placement of the illuminated heart is a bit off, maybe place it one tile up so you won't walk against it when coming from the bridge at the left.

Phoebe's House
- Cute rooms, girly
- Love the sweets room
- Sweets room has same music as main room?
- Right room has a lounge sofa with a slightly other kind of blue than the rococo set. Perhaps just leave it creamy white!
- I like your basement. It's nice to see your villager pictures. I might do this as well haha! *stealing your idea*

Caterina's House
- Storage house?
- Slap some colour on the exterior baby!

- - - Post Merge - - -

I'd like one if that's all right.
Would especially like to know what to do with Reimu's right room.

A bit late, but here you are anyway. ^^

Reimu's right room
OMG I LOVE THIS HOUSE <3 but uhh yes, you wanted tips! Perhaps you could create a sitting area by placing two chairs in front of the table. Perhaps put in a house plant like next to the desk. I can imagine a pothos standing there! If you have any spare paintings left from Redd you can hang one on the wall above the stereo. I hope this helps~

Thank you! It's still under some development but it's nice to know you like what I've done so far! I haven't done much with my alt cause I wasn't sure if I was gonna keep her yet. (storage and path slave) I'm still crunching ideas for certain areas and waiting on PWP requests(which is why some paths are disjointed) and waiting on Molly and Freckles to leave cause they're totally in the way right now. Thanks for the review! :3 I'll have to post again once everything is complete.
