oh, sorry i haven't dropped by in sooo long, twiggy 15.gif!

i like the little quaint town center showcased in your teaser. imageshack was my host of choice when i first started my CJ, till i got POed at them losing all my pics. now i'm photobucket through and through.

heh, kinda ironic that the jail is located next to a church 11.gif. looking forward to that update!

    (hotpink) REPLIES

    collgab:  Oh thankies collgabish!!  9.gif  I love the JRJ side street mod.  Sorry you can't get it to work.  15.gif

    CarmineHilton:  Thanks Carmine 43.gif  So glad you liked the update.

    Leech10:  LoL, I never really notice them. 

    ky72x:  Well, that is just one picture.  I probably won't be so lucky in this update.  3.gif  That reddish one-tile park?  Made by yours truly.  Just use the LE and plop a BSC (I think it's BSC, anyway) prop onto a 1x1 lot.  Took me about 5 seconds and it's really handy for those little tiles that nothing else looks right on!   That basketball court is by...oh, man...onlyplace4.  15.gif  Find it here.  (I would look back at the pic to see what you are talking about, but it has departed to...somewhere in cyberspace.  47.gif  If I didn't give you the right thing, let me know!) 

    The Big Z:  Well, here it is!  Hope you enjoyed, my friend.  4.gif

    Explodingsims:  Thanks, Exploding!!  (...sims...err... what do you like to be called?)

    Drswhat316:  Don't worry about it, I haven't stopped in hardly any CJ's lately!  Been kinda busy.  I know, I don't really like imageshack, but alas (lol), my photobucket has...kicked the bucket.  47.gif

    Hello, Twiggy!

    Good to see you back again!  It's been such a long time since you gave us new pictures...but definitely worth the wait! 

    Continued farm exploitations....nice!  I like the flower shop...it seems just the type of thing you might see on the side of a country road in South Texas where farms abound.  Heh heh...nice cattle ranch! I'm not sure, but do you know if the farm props that were being developed in 3RR been released?  With the mill and the cattle guard and fences?  I sort of lost track of their development....

    HA!  That newspaper!  I remember that awesome tiered park you made, and the cheese grater!  My favorite part, though, were the song titles...especially the first one!  LOL, very nice!

    Those other farm pictures really remind me of South Texas...or Arizona.  Somewhere where there might be farms and/or orchards on flat lands.  The only thing is that the Street-Side Mod puts all those trees and cars on the side, so it makes it seem a bit less rural than usual.  Still, it doesn't take away from the scenery, especially in the sunset picture.  That one's very...ahh, picturesque 3.gif!  And that teaser looks...well, teas-ha!  I can't do that twice in one paragraph.  But it makes me very impatient for the next update!

    Anyways, it's great to see you back in the CJ mix with new pictures and papers.  Look forward to the next update!

    Oh!  But before I forget, I would very much enjoy to set up an embassy in Tierra de la Oscuridad, if you don't mind!  I'd be more than happy to return the favor!

    Region Name: Condor Bay (or Condor Valley)

    Capital City: Fordville (city), Willow (state)

    Region Population: 144,000

    Your Screenname (or first name if preferred): Masochist, Mas or Isaac (I have absolutely no preference, so if either one of these meets your needs the best, you can use it...if not, then just go with Mas, I suppose)

    Embassy Building Request (include STEX link in your post): Well...why not the old Newman Inc. Courthouse?  Seems like a good embassy.  Of course, if someone else has already claimed it, I'll choose another (I can't quite check if any of those links are for that building...14.gif)

    The city of Ripley!!

    I know, I know, I'm terrible at making airports...I just plop the Maxis one wherever it will fit...LOL

    ripleyairportnk7.jpg

    ripleytrainstationlf6.jpg

    ripleyamericanw2wmp3.jpg

    Ripley is land-locked, so they decided to build this fake-looking naval place on a pond shore...22.gif

    Thanks for the embassy requests!  I would have worked on them this weekend, but ST was down.  15.gif  I got a few done, but just plopped the buildings basically.  Hopefully I will get them done this week! 

    Shingure:  You picked the same building as Zelgadis above you [Carlton House by onlyplace4].  Would you care to pick another?  I pulled out of the SCJU because I was too busy to contribute anything.  2.gif  I may join again, if I have the time and feel like I would be some help to it!  Haha

    CarmineHilton:  Haha, thank you!  Just let me know whenever you would like an embassy.

    tigerplayer91:  Hey Nick!  I can't wait to see what you have planned for your new CJ9.gif

    masochist:  No, I didn't know about the farm props (??)  I don't spend a lot of time on SC4D...er...where were they released?  Hehe, I have fun thinking up those songs (and book) titles!  I love just putting silly things in there to see if anyone notices.  Anyway, I need to check out Condor Bay, you have probably updated again and I must, of course, write my epistle.  18.gif  BTW I like the colors there in that request.  3.gif

    Hey Twigs!

    K so this new upload basically rocks, lol

    And what you lack in airport making you definately

    make up for in your amazing ability to create parks and what not.

    Is Ripley quite finished yet though? I cant tell if your done with it or

    if its still a work in progress? Oh well, its good all the same lol.

    Btw- do you still need a link for my embassy? Or will you be able to find it alright?

    ooh, that's a pretty town. I didn't know you can place the boardwalk pieces on dry land! That part was funny btw. Your town is very green and the street layout rocks. Very inspirational

    Hello all, I am almost done with embassies, sorry it's taken so long!  I think you will be pleased with them though 9.gif 

    STBA.gif  Leech10:  Thanks!  Glad you liked it. 

    bfdnjk.JPGtigerplayer91:  New avi?  That is nice, yes.  Thanks, haha, glad you like the parks 4.gif  Ripley isn't quite finished, I think it is a small tile, though, so it shouldn't be too hard to complete.  I found your embassy as you know, will be featured next time 2.gif  Cya Nick

    CSI%20NY.jpg  anarchy0029:  Thanks for your patience 2.gif

    Bff%20Jill.gif Jill Jacobs:  Hey Jill, I think Peg mentions it in the readme, that the boardwalks work with his ponds.  Thank you for the kind comment 5.gif

    Shingure1000.jpgShingure:  He has plenty of other buildings to work with 2.gif  But the NDEX building is a nice choice.

    Untitled51.jpg  Explodingsims:  Thank you very much, yes, you need to start a CJ haha, and I could visit it.

    OH WOW those look really nice twiggy, your cities look absolutely amazing and so lovely great work on them. Lol your post was quite a bit in Lorraine, lol I can't even remember what it was about or I would just reply right now. But I AM glad you have good shopping stories, lol I hate it when I buy on impulse... because then it never stops I just keep getting more and more and more... and then before I know it I'm paying like 500 dollars. Anyway great work again on this CJ, can't wait to see more.

    Nice job with Ripley, its got plenty of the classic elements that make this CJ very unique! That diagonal road looks great and works well for a major thoroughfare for the city. Loving the teaser pic, not for the color but for the design of the area. 3.gif Hehe, pink isn't so bad, but blue rules supreme over all colors. 2.gif

    Hope it's not too late for another embassy request! If it is, that's alright. 4.gif

    This update was a little sooner than you thought perhaps !!  (I was going to post it tomorrow, but, I don't know if I'll be able to!) 

    REPLIES

    ilikehotdogsalot:  Of course you can't!  2.gif

    Amerikaner:  Lol.... I don't even remember what was about....22.gif  I do suppose it was about the update... 9.gif At least in part haha.  Thank you for your too kind comments.  I usually do not buy on impulse, I try to only get things that I need, so it just felt good to buy something totally random that I don't need.  9.gif

    tigerplayer91:  Ah yes but I do believe I already showed it to you...I ruined the surprise!  15.gif  Hope you like it anyway.  Yes haha pink is a lovely color. 

    ky72x:  Yes my friend I believe you are too late....I had already put together the update when you posted !!  But don't worry you will still get an embassy, in a future update.  Thank you for your comments! 5.gif

    zelgadis:  Thank you , it helps that his stuff is good-looking to begin with ..... 9.gif

    Note: Masochist, I'm not sure if that was the building you wanted, since the day you posted your request the STEX was down.... But I searched for Newman Court House and that is what came up...

    Everyone, I hope you like your embassy and if you are not satisfied with it in any way, let me know and I will redo it... 2.gif

    Hmm well I am not to satisfied on the account of me not even having one, haha 3.gif I will just have to work on that with you. Anyway the "update" (I guess thats what it is right?lol) well it looks good either way, I LOVE the first picture, its very striking. Patadav's embassy looks very sexy I must say, as does Myon's I like that one as well. Great work my friend, can't wait to see more (thankfully since my last post I did not have to 3.gif)
