Sakhaliyan Peoples Republic

[sc4portugal 10]

wow so good, and that this part: " It won't go towards weapons use, no way... well, maybe a little Atom Bomb... but shhhh... don't tell the Americans... or NATO... we know how uptight they all get when it comes to the 'Commies testing Weapons of Mass Destruction' uuuuugh... you'd think that maniacal 1950's Mccarthyism had worn off by now... oh well. "

Is so true

[ilikehotdogsalot 311]

wow, such a wonderful update, such an interesting story! really, one of the best new city journals yet!

[His Divine Hand 244]

Ha! Awesom work, I love the style you use for this city and Serbia, your excellent use of photoshop really brings the story of your cities to life! I hope you can fix those glitches so you continue Sakhaliyan much longer than Serbia! Thanks for making such a good CJ!

[sEAhAwk fAn121 0]

still lots of commie! great start! keep up the awsome work!

[BurroDiablo 222]

The Glitches are fixed to my knowledge... the zoom crash still happens, albeit less frequently, but I doubt i'll ever get rid of that... it just seems to happen when people have alot of Plugins.

And thanks Hotdogs, I'm going to try my best with this one... try and make it last a while... hell, if all works out, we might even invade a few countries... [watch your back Schulmania.... lol, just kidding... I love Cats too much ]

"maybe a little atom bomb"

Sakhaliya could use it to intimidate nearby Hiraka (skyliner's CJ)  to rip some uranium off them LOL

This CJ is, not only it is visually excellent, but humor is making the entire thing so enjoyable

[Mulefisk 15]

You bastard.. your photoshopping is almost too good.

I see I have some new competition.

Great work!

[jacqulina 162]

wow thats awesome photoshopping very realistic storms and weather effects,awesome work and pics my friend

[patriots_1228 51]

[GMT 389]

your pshop skills amaze me over and over again...

wonderfull work

[Godzillaman 21]

Great start man! oh and does this CJ have to do anything with the other one that blew up?

[ilikehotdogsalot 311]

lol, sorry for posting again, but everytime i look at your title, i keep thinking of sanjaya from american idol

[BurroDiablo 222]

Thought i'd start writing some replies since my game just crashed and made me loose most of what I was building *Sigh* The painful work of a CJ'er

[sorry to the people who commented on the other page, i'm quite busy at the moment and can only reply to comments on this page]

SC4Portugal-

Haha, I liked writing that bit, I found it amusing when It came to my head. It is very true though, you would have though since the fall of Soviet Russia some of that 50's Mccarthyism would have worn off around the world... but It hasn't... its quite disheartening.

Hotdogs- I would take a vote on that but this isn't a Democracy... so I wholly agree

His Divine Hand- Im bringing out the lurkers with this one aint I?! Haha, welcome to Simtrop, glad you like this CJ

Seahawk Fan121- Oh yeah... alot more commie... maybe not as violent as Siberia but I am planning a War at some point, that won't be for a few months though while I boost my Photoshopping skills to breaking point, so watch this space

2ch.net simplayer- 'Just a little one... honestly, it will be tiny'... I could use it to intimidate Hikara, yeah... I'll give them a nice poke with the preverbial Nuclear Twig

Mulefisk- Haha, thanks!  As you probably know, Photoshop is infinite in its capabilities... me and you have only scratched the surface. PS give it those qualities that are impossible in game... like Rain, as you have seen...

Jacqulina- Glad you like it... it takes a good while to get it right

Patriots 1228- Thanks very much... theres more where that came from

GMT- Thank you... I never did get that Photoshop Tutorial up that I said I'd do... guess I could do that one day in the coming months. I don't want to give away too many secrets though or it would lose its originality

Godzillaman- Thanks for the comment. Yeah, Sakhaliya ties in with Siberia... I thought i'd keep  some continuation in my CJ's... thats also why 45,000 Siberian Refugee's turned up in Sakhaliya on a Container Ship... lol.

Hotdogs- LOL... who the hell...? He looks like Shabaz abit from last years [uK] Big Brother... im not a big reality TV fan, but I found him really ***** entertaining for the 5 seconds he was on TV...

---

At this point in time, it would have been nice of me to post up a teaser or something... but becuase it crashed, I only really had 2 images... both of terraforming... wich is not really mouth watering, lol.

I'll see what I can cook up for you TEASER wise today and maybe tomorrow i'll update

[jayo 44]

Awesome l burro

[BurroDiablo 222]

Thanks Jayo!

Sorry [i'm starting to apologise alot again... wich is worrying] but I can't sort out a teaser tonight... bah, I'm going to be spending my day elsewhere.

I'll post a small update tomorrow, its only going to be small becuase I've got alot of work to do. No worries, next week everything should change since its nearly the start of summer

[Schulmanator 5,812]

I feel your pain on the SC4 crashes... I lost a ton of stuff for my Master Plan- Prong 2. It's my fault for not saving though. My slow computer takes so long to save I keep skipping it until something like this happens. DOH! Your updates are worth waiting for, so I will, in true Soviet style, stand in a long line for it and wait!

Oh, as for the atomic bombs... Schulmania fears not! After all, our terrestrial homeland is the birthplace of the atomic bomb! The warm glow in our hearts is the plutonium in the drinking water!

[Zelgadis 638]

Damn! Those are some of the best CJ pics I've ever seen! The variety of charts, SC4, and other stuff is great! Humor is good too.

Nice to have you in Socialist Internationale!!!

ISF

[Amerikaner 42]

hmmmm io might be interested in buying some of those atomic bombs...for our beloved leader...lol well i cant wait for the next update i know its gonna be rocken

[jacqulina 162]

i cant wait for that update and i sure know what its like to lose the work you do on a crash my friend

[Giligone 10]

Amazing storyline! This one is going to be reeeeally good for sure. Those pics of the ship in the fog are stunning. You are the photoshop master of Simtrop. Keep it up.

[football_fever 6]

Wow, you're right, it does work better if you read it with a Russian accent. And did I see that right? They export more alcohol than wood? Crazy....

Seriously though, nice updates. Good continuation of Siberia.

[Porter 68]

Ok, seriously.... How in the world do you make that rain and fogging??? I can wrap my brain around the glow effects.... even the color washes, but those... I'm lost....

The native Sakhalinsk Fir Tree's sap makes a good, Parrafin like alcohol that you can run cars off... and drink if your insane enough. It tastes like a mix between Mead and a kick in the face... [yes... you know, the taste of pain as your Liver cries for mercy...]

I mean, honestly... what sells for more... a Bottle of sweet, succulent, golden Scotch, or a Plank of wood?  

Oh... and as for the Effects... its well guarded secret... it's locked in a Reactor Core guarded by  the 3 most feared people who ever lived...  Anthony Hopkins, Marlon Brando's Zombie and Anne Robinson... yaargh.

[Porter 68]

OK, well, not afraid of the first two... lost my brain years ago....

As for Anne.... hmmm.... do all British game show hosts look like they've been sucking on a lemon all day? Eh, nothing a flamethrower or a nice cup of tea to stop a British person...

Now.... about that radioactive core.... hmmm....

Seriously though, excellent stuff in the photoshopping department.... It's made me go back to researching CS2 again.

Can't wait for a new update!

[ExiL3 10]

nice details

[Giligone 10]

haha, thats some potent moonshine!

[BurroDiablo 222]

UPDATE 1.01- STATUS REPORT - Am I lucifer?

Today was quite scary. On one of my routine security checks I unexpectedly belched the word 'DAMIAN'... to further that, this is my 666th entry into this dossier... strange? Maybe not...

I did take a few shots of Khabarovsk to show you today but my Camera len's was waaaay out of focus, as you can see-

I threw the camera into the gutter as you can imagine, It was Siberian rubbish anyway... with the amount of new Industry moving to this City, I can imagine soon I will be holding a Camera of Sakhaliyan origins! It may be bulky and less practical than your 'Samsung' equivelant, but do I care? Well... yes acctually, i do... my back is beginning to hurt and this country is seriously lacking good chiropractors (GOOD ones... not a moustachioed hag named 'Helga' wanting to pound your kidneys for half an hour).

My personal vision of what the most evil woman on Earth looks like...

Oh, and as for those Siberians... as far as I know the last one was released today... he was thought to have had a bad case of Radiation poisoning when really, he was just allergic to whatever the hell it was the cook put in the Borscht (He's always adding paprika to things! *sigh*)

Its not a spice... its a drug!

Anyway... 1st Commissar Kolgyev wants his medals polished, enjoy whats left of your day

[2ch.net simplayer 180]

that red powder...... mercury sulfide? :-S

[homeandaway 1]

lol! - thats a nice update, but funny! - i like the graphic used on the first pic! - cant wait to see more ~Alex~

[Voulpiotis 4]

Completely out of focus.... Can't see well. Next time make sure you change the settings of your camera...
