AVATAR land construction progress

[danlb_2000]

I spy the arches!

I wonder how many workers have gotten lost in there so far?

 

[HouseHacker97]

I'm sure the pictures really don't to the land justice. The difference in the size of the people compared to the rock work is insane! does anyone have a size comparison to cars land? It seems like this may be bigger/more impressive

I spy the arches!

This looks awesome! Unbelievable how they can turn these concrete structures into the finished looks (bottom right mountain). Just beautiful. I'm super excited.

It is planned for 4/22/17.

ugh-I was really hoping we weren't that far out...but again. I would rather them get it right the first time. And not pull a ROL.

everytime I see the cranes I think of baseball...

Can someone with access to a helicopter fly it out today and get a FRONT view of AVATAR. It seems like all views are from the back. I know how big the box is, I want to see the land from more of a guest-angle.

K, thanks, bye.

I'll go out later. My Blackhawk is parked right next to my Nuclear Sub.

So...30 minutes til pictures come up? I'll have my secretary clear my schedule for the afternoon.

Why does that one floating mountain have a big hole in the top?

I don't think that is a floating mountain. I think it is on the ground. Either way that appears to be an access hole that allows workers to get inside and do work on what is essentially a full 360º mountain and will not ruin the aesthetics for guests.

I read that it's for access and/or lighting.

woah, someone deleted the photos and video.
Sad.. because it did show an almost finished floating rock.
The vines were finally there and detailed.

I love the one tiny floating rock mounted on the corner of the show building. It's so cute. I want one.

Because they were from the site which cannot be named.

Only part about this site that I can't stand. It's kind of a shady thing to do... block "competitor" sites for fear that, what, they'll steal us away from here?

The pictures are very nice, it's just too bad I had to look around a bit. I did find the pics because I know what site that is, but others may not know, and then it becomes problematic. Okay, rant over. Construction looks great.

@wdwmagic can go into more detail if he likes, but I can tell you that you are 100% wrong as to why that linking to that particular site was banned.

If WDWmagic was so afraid of loosing members like you suggest, why would links to All Ears, DIS Boards, Mouse Planet and numerous others be allowed?

Yes indeed, I believe there are 2 sites on the block list. Both of those are operated by people who have made it clear that they have an extreme dislike for WDWMAGIC, and are banned members from this site. In view of that, I'm not about to hand them advertising for their sites on WDWMAGIC.

And back to AVATAR.

They're just jealous WDWMagic has the best forums and overall best community. Good Job Steve.

Does anyone have or have seen close-ups of the vines? Do they look more realistic yet?

Okay fair enough. Thanks for all that you do here.
