Real shame I don't really check through ST's CJ section anymore. Because in my opinion a large portion isn't worth looking at. There are a few jewels though that remain here. Like FF's CJs, and I think yours is one of them. I truly enjoy looking at these pictures and the mosaics.

Well I've leave by wishing you a happy new year and I'll make it a new years resolution to visit here more often.

    bbfan02 Thank you. I've started working on the next update so. Probably on the weekend. Stay tuned.

    Yoman3 Hey, Thanks for stopping by. Unfortunately, I'd have to agree with you on that one. The majority of CJs here aren't that great and don't last any significant amount of time. Trying to filter out the good ones is tough. I'm glad you think my CJ is a 'jewel'. I've thought about duplicating my CJ/MD over at SC4D, but I don't know what I'd do with all my previous work.... Anyway, thanks for coming by and hope to see you around here more often in the future.

    connorc24 Thanks! I'm glad you like my work so much.

    GreekMan Lol, you don't have to pay. I just showed it to you for free! I'm not sure what to make of your eagerness to blow up my city . I think I'm going to have the FBI follow you now...38.gif.

    bokrif Thanks. Its hard coming up with enough content to fill a whole paper... haha.

    ccecill Indeed. I guess I'll be in the AU papers now too 10.gif. haha

    HabLeUrG Thanks. 4.gif Happy new year to you too!

    truflip99 Thank you! Its taken me many moons to develop a decent suburban style. I'm glad to see my efforts have paid off. 4.gif

    njdevi66 Thanks. Where is home for you?

    dralin321 Haha, clean so long as you don't consider the copious amounts of radioactive waste! But, I guess thats better than global warming...

    dedgren Hi David! Welcome back. I haven't seen you here in ages. Thanks for your encouraging comment.43.gif Maybe I'll see you back here more often? hehe. Thank you again.

    Alright, time for an update. This one will be a time-lapse view of the construction of the new Liberty Investment Group (LIG) HQ in Saigon.

    First off, here is a before shot of the vacant lot that was purchased by LIG.

    And here's a larger mosaic of the same site.

    bottom_1.jpg

    Once the paperwork was finalized, construction crews wasted no time in clearing the site. Two roads had to be temporarily closed due to extensive foundation work: they can be seen here being torn up.

    clearing_site.jpg

    Here is an artist's rendition of the final design.

    bottom_2.jpg

    Although you've seen this one in the newspaper, I've re-included it to illustrate the afore-mentioned foundation work.

    Deadlines need to be met and that resulted in late nights. Here's a shot of the site at night.

    Wow! Cool tower! Swiss Re, right? Cool newspaper too. Mayor John Arbuckle? Lol, is Nemonos plagued with lasagna-eating felines? 3.gif I noticed the new LIG building only took a few months to build...lol you have speedy construction crews. My game is so slow that I have to leave the room. Maybe a national park next? Nice work!

    jacqulina Thank you again. 4.gif

    penguin007 Thanks, I think the props you are referring to are the on street bus stops? In anycase, thanks!

    bbfan02 Thanks. The building was chosen by bokrif, since its his company. haha. But I agree, it works well.

    bokrif Thank you. 10.gif I'm glad LIG approves. I actually tried my hand at lotting the base myself because the original base was boring. It turned out not bad either. I also made some handy 1x1 parking lots, hehe.

    Mike the Mayor Thank you. I like the construction lots, they are so much better than the silly maxis construction.

    suplado! Thanks! It really is a bizarre building. But so interesting.

    IDS2 Yep, you know well. Haha, I see someone figured where I got the name. So far the pet population is under control in Nemonos, I guess everyone watches the Price is Right alot! hahahah. Yep, fast construction in Nemonos... I plopped the building if you were thinking I let it grow on its own...38.gif. A national park eh... hmmm. I don't really know how to do that?

    jrone3 Hi, thanks. Glad to see you've come out of lurker mode. 9.gif

    dralin321 Thank you.


    Come check out the Nemonos Wiki article over on the IPON wiki. It can also be found in my signiture now. 4.gif

    Nice progress Giligone! I find it strange thought that the building goes from a square looking tower to an egg shape...3.gif

    jacquilina Thanks, but a little more waiting yet, no updates today.

    Simfan34 Lol, Corata already has a tower in the downtown, and thank you 4.gif

    Godzillaman Thanks. Lol, yea.. well, there were no good round construction bats that I had. But, I'll just say that they hadn't extended the floors out into the round shape yet 38.gif

    GreekMan Thanks! and Thank you. It took a good while to put those wiki articles together. I'm quite pleased with how they turned out so I'm glad you like them too.

    IDS2 Thanks. Haha, Mall of America. I'll see what I can do.

    Interchange Hey, thanks. That is the glenshire house I believe.

    jaculina Lol, wait no longer!


    Hello everyone. I'm back in school now, so updates may be fewer and farther between. I say may because I don't really know how my workload is going to pan out. Anyway, I've got a newspaper update here so, enjoy! 4.gif
