I have a picture of me on Ariels Throne, and I won't make you look at it.

Remember in the eighties when just the clock structure was painted in shades of blue and the rest was still white and gold? What were they thinking?<br /><br />There's that zigzag walkway that I like so much. They should have left that and the other little remnants from the HOTF. Pixie Hollow is pretty ugly and has no business being in the Plaza area in my opinion, but at least it's green and somewhat blends in (unlike the Astro Orbitor!) Does anyone know if the Triton figure will be used outside of the new Little Mermaid attraction in some way?TokyoMagic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16340756514811789233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-587945942231408032010-12-19T12:09:52.833-08:002010-12-19T12:09:52.833-08:00I'm glad they went back to the white and gold ...I'm glad they went back to the white and gold original. Bear in mind that Mary Blair was considered a superb colorist (better than Matisse, according to Marc Davis!), and she had good artistic reasons for the color decisions. The exterior acts as a <i>set up</i> for what comes inside rather than a <i>preview</i>, making the colors there more unexpected and therefore more noticeable and vivid.

Just because you can use more color doesn't mean you should! It looks so great now, but of course that's just my opinion...Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-5464638184531035502010-12-19T08:11:15.967-08:002010-12-19T08:11:15.967-08:00I actually liked the pastel colors on Small World!...I actually liked the pastel colors on Small World!
