Johannesburg, South Africa!.

[homeandaway 1]

Here is Johannesburg, South Africa!.

While i was waiting this morning for the votes to end, which Sydney is the next city, i made Johannesburg in 2 hours, nothing hard, just simple!. And it turned out to be quite like a 'mini Johannesburg' of some sort, with a skyline that loos very similar - im proud of it!.

~Overview of Johannesburg~

~Downtown Pics~

~Hillbrow Tower, tallest structure in the city and its environs~

~'Wild at Heart', an african wildlife drama series is filmed 40 mins drive away from Johannesburg~

Thanks for viewing and please leave a comment after the beep - 'beep'!.
Take care

Wow! This is lookin' good! But... 2 HOURS?! ARE YOU INSANE?! That's like how copex4 did Nawlins' in just under 7 hours! Good job too, very realistic although small in scale. TopCliff

[homeandaway 1]

I might make 'quickie' Cape Town one day...watch his space....

Thanks for the comment - very much appreciated.

Good job Alex! Are you going to continue Johannesburg?

[homeandaway 1]

well...it depends on wether if more people comment and all that, also, wether if i have missed out anything etc.

Also, i have to still continue with Rangoon at the moment.

But, do you want me to continue the city for more improvments?.

Take care

Well it would be nice to see more suburbs and ghettos of Johannesburg. Hard to say that have you missed anything, because I haven't been Johannesburg, heh.

[homeandaway 1]

LOL, okay ill go on the city again, dont know when and just expand the shanty suburbs!. Thanks my friend!.

I havent been to the city aswell, just know abit about it!.

take care

[Voulpiotis 4]

Well, 2 hours.... Tell it to copex4 - he'll get very angry! Good job there, but you should spend some more time in details and further expansion!

[homeandaway 1]

Erm...I just made it very quick and turned out to be well!. Thats all!. But Copx4 does really, far bigger than mine cities..etc...

Anyway, thanks very much for commenting my friends.

Is this based on HabLeUrG's "mini city"?

[asturianu 4]

Great job, Alex, I like it, but are you going to make it bigger? I mean, suburbs, ghettos....Nice job!

Cristian

[homeandaway 1]

No, it is not based on HabLeUrGs' mini earth...i would never do that to my very good friend Eblem.

And Astrianu - i will expand it soon...to busy planning Sydney and Athens...

thanks for those comments my friends!.

hi alex another great cj and quite realistic on a smaller scale like someone said allready,very nicely done my friend,pics are awesome too

[skyliner22 16]

Awesome job man, Johannesburg! I actually want this to be a continuation CJ unlike copes since he just posts deletes, we dont get to enjoy the full aspect his cities offer, put off the other recreations for a while, dont turn into cope! Make this an actual CJ! cant wait for upclose shots!

One question, do you use the super demand radical ordinance?

[Schulmanator 5,799]

Cool idea! I enjoyed it.

[homeandaway 1]

Sxhulmanator - Hi my friend, glad you think all of this is a 'cool idea'!. Thanks my friend!.

Take care

Okay, I, as a South African, have to say that that initial aerial shot of Johannesburg looks VERY, VERY realistic! *shock*

Of course, due to the limitations of custom content, upon closer inspection one can see the differences more clearly, but what the heck! That's great, and I do of course understand that there are very little, no, wait, almost NO South African skyscrapers and other buildings available (apart from a few released by CSX / Vlakhaas).

I've never really been fond of Johannesburg, as such, as I'm a resident of its northern neighbour (well, we're pretty much connected nowadays) and the administrative Capital of the Republic - South Africa.

Johannesburg is for the snooty rich people and their fast cars, fast-paced lives and all that. Not for me. I prefer the more laid-back approach to fast-paced living, yeah, it sounds contradictory, but we Pretorians just have a specific way of doing things. Not to mention that I love Pretoria "architecture," the buildings we have here, the Jacaranda trees in spring, and the amazing student and night life of the city.

Okay, enough pimping my city. lol.

But, yet again, great impression here! *two thumbs up*
