It really looks great. It is exactly what the studios needed, I always felt it lacked something like that. A great place to get some fab photographs.

It's all very impressive isn't it :wink:

I know I should wait until it is finished, and see it in person, but on photo's the Hollywood hills seem to let the area down to me. I was always a little worried how the greenery would look 2D, and with it being very straight edged and "blocked", on the photos so far, it doesnt quite look right to me. But hey, I should just wait until its all done!!!

It looks pretty good

I think the backdrop could have been slightly bigger, but it'll do.

I understand what you are saying about the Hollywood Boulevard, it looks really small. I suppose the photograph is just looking at it from an angle, it is all an illusion.....I can't wait to see it in person

Quote from: "RnRCj"It looks pretty good I think the backdrop could have been slightly bigger, but it'll do.

The problem here is that if they made it bigger, to look better against the Tower from this angle, the hills would look far too huge from Disney Bros Plaza.

The whole thing is looking great, my only concern is similar to penfold - it's a shame the hills will apparently cut off at the same width of the old STT billboard, rather than perhaps curve downwards either side.

Something nobody has mentioned (I only just noticed myself) - the new shelter for the tips board is in place already:

Great location for it, makes the area much busier. Kinda forces you to walk down the centre of the street too, so you get the proper effect.

I noticed that

But I thought it was just part of the buildings or some construction things so I didn't point it out :lol:
