CITIES

[Mulefisk 15]

Welcome to my new Simtropolis CJ.

As you've probably already guessed, the theme of this journal is Cities. Everything about them and everything around them. Throughout this journal, I will look at fictional cities of all sorts based on different places around the world. Everything from Eastern Europe, to Norway, to possibly Asia.

My last CJ, The City of Ocenca, which I closed today, had too much of a central theme, and didn't give me enough freedom. With this CJ, i'm basically going to go crazy, and make whatever I feel inspired to make.

The first city we will be looking at is an Eastern European city, more specifically Romanian, called Antinja. The architecture is as you will see a good mix of new and old. This is because durning WW2, much of the original city centre was left in ruins. Therefore, much had to be rebuilt. This was done, mainly in a post WW2 functionalistic communist style.

So, I guess there is nothing left to say but, enjoy!

Feel free to comment! Oh, and this CJ has no affiliation with WORLD by ilikehotdogsalot, even though it might seem like it.

What's with the BIG titles? VALTIO, then WORLD and now CITIES. And funniest part is, that VALTIO would be STATE in english, hah hah!

But excellent work, too great I would say.

[Mikeaut1 261]

Now THAT, is awesome!!! I need to find out how to make birds eye 3d views!! Excellent work!

[BurroDiablo 222]

Photoshopping makes the world go round... its true... Adobe rules the known Universe

I guess it would be useless If you didn't have such an amazing city! I love the CITIES logo... I could see that on the front of a game, have you done a Graphic Design course by chance? Or is this just natural born talent oozing through...

Whatever it is... it works... very very well. Awesome work! I'll be back for more

[homeandaway 1]

thats a stunning pic my friend! - please could you tell me what product you have gone with to make it?, thanks!, be safe and take care ~alex~
