Thanks, I actually have to say that I think Maxis did a really good job on their CO££ buildings. They do look very similar to some in the UK. If you filter your buildings you can keep a good mix of the Maxis/Custom

Thanks for the advice

keep it up

I like the bus road, do buses ever go into the tunnels? I wonder what would happen if you built stations on the subway tube thats being used by road traffic.

In seattle there is/was something like that (right now is being turned into light rail so maybe its different now)

This is one of the best CJ's around. Espically St Johns is great, but the bus street? Why the buses are in the "middle of nowhere"? It dosen't look very busy place.

[homeandaway 1]

those are some very nice high quality jpegs, maybe a little too nice they took forever to load, great cj though

[The Big Z 103]

Simply Amazing! I love the pictures that you have. They look soooooo realistic. I really like how you use the avenue tunnels and the round-abouts. I'll definitely keep a close eye on this CJ from now on.

[GingerBlokey 30]

A bit of a change at the moment, Ive been working on another city. Ive still got plenty of mileage for Helmskirk and Waveny but Ive been really inspired by some other CJs so here is a bit of a better city. Crayley.

Thanks, with a bit of effort and time its easy to create a realistic city

[Mulefisk 15]

Some great stuff here.

I love that overview shot. (5.1) It looks like a lot of time went into planning it.

Your subtle photoshopping is also excellent.

Great work!

No, it's not that easy.

You need a good eye for your environment, a feeling for its dimensions,  and a vision of what you want to do in your mind, too.

And I can see all of what's necessary for a great CJ in your new one!  I didn't even found something to criticize ...

Lovely pics, my friend. Another very nice and diverse city - well done!

[Equilibria 16]

This is good stuff. I like the creative uses of some common BATs.

[Amerikaner 42]

awsome this is an amazing CJ, cant wait for more

[sc4portugal 10]

WOW beautiful

[GingerBlokey 30]

Well I did say something interactive, but that will have to wait, because it isn't finnished yet. Instead here is a little peak around a small satelite town of Helmskirk called Dusley and the surrounding suburban areas including Lakewood, New Earlsfield and Little Tadworth.
