Exciting conclusion! Did you get my pm? Have you made up your mind? Avon is looking very realistic. Very realistic.

    Now for the suburbs of Avon, these are so big i'm going to have to split them. This first update concentrates on the Southern suburbs of Avon, mainly below the River Avon.

    Pay attention to the picture, especially you at the back!

     ilikehotdogsalot:Thanks, but dont thieve that idea, Its copyrighted by the Avonian Copyright board you know! and we'll sue at the drop of a hat... maybe 38.gif

    Amerikaner:Thanks! i'm sure Frank had a ordinary but good day

    Glenni:Thanks!

    Krio:I'm already home! silly man. I chose the w2w metro because I wanted to have some density there which I wouldn't get with a normal one, hmm 41.gif

    homeandaway:THanks, yes Westenders is based on the real one but set in the west end which isnt as nice as london's "west end"

    jayo:Thanks

    redhed55:Thanks, the map is Prince Edward Island which can be found on the STEX

    asturianu:Thanks, i'm hoping to bring back the asia look later maybe. cough colonies. you didn;t hear that. 2.gif

    Yoman3:Thanks for your comment, those pesky commies 32.gif we'll have to see... they will play a part later i'm sure.

    El Burro:Thanks, indeed you just never know 3.gif

    Mike the Mayor: Thanks!

    aleking:Thanks, the farms really do test my patience but the end result looks good enough to make it worthwhile. By the end I will probably grow a deepseated hate of farms due to all the hours of zoning them 2.gif

    Simfan34:Thanks!

    Shadow_Assassin:Thanks, just the atmosphere i'm going for 2.gif

    Still the best CJ in ST, the rail is awesome (how you british do that), Battlesea industrial areas a so realistic, Maxis fits perfectly, suburbs looks little messy (maybe because of photoshop) but they are still impressive. But the Maxis stadium..coultharda's are better. Use them, though they don't look as old.

    nice update, avon is a bit based on London, am i right??

    looking forward for the next update!

    EDIT:

    i've got an other question (maybe a big question) where did you get your bats from?? i see a lot of UK bats, how do you do that?? nomaxismod? only uk buildings in your plugin folder??  i'm preparing a CJ, i'm now terraforming and the city will be based on London and Paris (mainly because of the awesome rail network both cities have).. so i want as many uk bats as i can get..

    wow, how could i have missed a new frogface CJ! this is looking awesome so far; is avon going to be a sort of alternate-universe UK like thames?

    i have to say it all looks good, but the farms look really impressive in particular...just very realistic...looking forward to more! 4.gif

    oh yeah, and i've been looking for these houses ever since i saw them in the thames CJ (which is where this picture is from, lol):

    folk22hhlz6.jpg

    do you think you could tell me where you found them? i've searched the STEX and can't find them anywhere...

    The region view is VERY IMPRESSIVE!! And the details in your inner-city and suburbs and your photoshopping make great pics that are worth more than a thousand words each!

    Don't think I'm being too nice...I haven't been here to the CJs section in a LONG time, so this is the first CJ in a while that I'm commenting on, and everything looks awesome!

    Keep it up FF!

    Frogface-

    You impress me more and more every time you update. The way you present the region is just outstanding. The suburbs are just.. I can't even think of a word to describe them they are that good! But I truely wish I could have the patience to build a region like you. Oh, and the railroads are genious 3.gif

    Keep it up, I really enjoy it!

    I love your work frogface, the way you lay your areas out and the styles that you use work well together, i especially like the area around the stadium, Chruleswood. keep up the great work, consider your CJ on my watch list.
