Well, sorry for the delay, but here I am! Great slideshows and teasers at the beginning! Hope to see more, soon. I can admit that Athens can not really be made in SC4 like New York, or Dubai, but your effort is much appreciated!

    Wow, great zoom- in, I like it. Very good usage of the ploppable rocks and the limestone, I enhance my city's looks with that as well. As Voulpiotis already said, you are really showing a great effort, but, yeah, Athens is a big challenge buildingwise, transportwise, everythingwise... spoken. Nevertheless I am sure you will continue to surprise us with great pics and slideshows 4.gif Hope you are finding even more buildings that fit in this nice place!!

    Beautiful job. Okay since there are no greek buildings on the STEX (afaik) you can't rebuild it hundred percent, but from what is possible it looks really great. I also like the presentation via slideshow, please keep it up like that.

    Hi Alex, I am doing fine, thank you! How about you? Very nice update my friend! You are absolutely right: those rocks are great for creating realistic surfaces and we have some quite good examples here on the forum. And: yes, never give up!!

    You really managed to create the different, totally mixed together architectural styles of Athens. I'll visit for sure!

    Take care,

    lucky7
