Couple of islands is the idea for the 90 rockscape.
Still working on it but would love some input.
Left side in front of overflow.

Right side

What do you guys think?
 
I like right side. Looks great. As for the left side idea try and make the island look like a tripod, same idea like you have just higher "legs"
 
right side looks grand .... left side , i think it could be a little more loosely stacked
 
While aquascaping is very much opinion based I always try and to avoid being able to see where one rock stops and another starts. Using all similar textured rock is a good start and then use all those little rubble pieces to help make things flow. This will help avoid the aquascaping from appearing like a pile of rocks and instead one giant piece of reef.
 
Thanks for the input guys! I plan on slightly changing the curve of the structure and want to keep in mind my plans for the layout. I am happy with the crevices and swim throughs for the fish, I just want it to flow. I plan on SPS and LPS on the right side and the left island will be Zoa dominated.
