New castle has the same energy as this:
The spires really aren’t working.
Are we expecting them to get darker like the concept art?
Glad I'm not the only one hoping for the blue to get darker! Liking the rose shade, it isn't looking as bright as I feared.
I think everything will look a lot better when the paint job is completely dry.
Agree. I'm having the same issue with the blue building's paint at Epcot's Rat, for example. I'm finding both paint jobs too crisp and bright for European inspired architecture. It's a work in progress, so there's hope.Last time I saw them paint it was three coats with this starting as the basecoat plus they added diamonds in the design. I expect it to get darker.
I think it will look better once they get it done and a summer of fade on it.
OH look, a princess party. How fun
I don't so I really don't mind whatever they do with it.
Beauty is subjective anyways. I really don't think it's THAT ugly. I really like how they did it at Disneyland's when I saw it personally than looking at the construction pics, so I guess I am geared towards liking this than not like.It's the symbol of the resort and visible from up to 2 miles away.
If they paint it ugly colours, it's hard not to notice.

I agree. I love the new colors and it’ll probably look much nicer once the top coat goes on.Literally only read this and the last page of the thread so apologies if I've definitely missed the mark here but... I don't understand all the hate! I think it looks super nice, the colour is definitely much needed after the last fading paint job, and it reminds me of DLR's castle too. (which I also love). Good job Disney!

Good eye! Looks like a light colored primer (?), the filigree in that small area hasn't gotten the gold paint treatment yet, either.View attachment 476940What’s up with this section here? Unless I’m mistaken, thats not the original color, but its a lot lighter than some of the other painted areas, and I think it matches the concept art more.
My guess is, they will match the castle.anyone know whether the surrounding turrets near the entrance to the castle and the buildings behind it (preferably the blue roofs) will get a lick of paint too? (just to match everything up)
