Wow HK at its finest! I wouldnt mind seeing more of the hustle and bustle up on Kowloon, the city seems kind of dead dont see much traffic and people

wonderful update! Central Plaza is one of my favorite buildings! cant wait to see more!

[hijodecordoba 74]

I hate offline weekends. i missed this awesome, amazing updates. Your ferry terminal is unique! the same with your photoshopping on your great appartement complex.

hong kong must be the most beautiful place on earth, if i take your cj in consideration. i would love held a convention there

[patriots_1228 51]

nasty fireworks, in fact, the whole update is just awesome. exspecially the night ones.

[autoVino 26]

Exlelent harbour, and amazing realism

[Mikeaut1 261]

Well it's almost time to move onto the next area so I'm just gonna finish up with a few pictures from Central and Kowloon.

I've taken Paul's advice and moved the Lippo to its proper site (behind the Far East Finance Center) Here's a nice shot of it in the evening.

Central Plaza in the evening...

And Pacific Place again with its amazing custom night-lighting.

The Lippo Towers. There's crazy traffic for about 4 blocks all around the Lippo every evening, I swear I haven’t used traffic generators for this, it's all natural!

Here's some of the busy low-wealth market areas from Tsim Sha Tsui again.

[The Big Z 103]

Wow! That's really such an amazing update. And what a great city you have here! It really does look like Hong Kong!

Dude, this is probably the CJ i like most. usually I just lurk around other CJs but I just have to post in this. I guess I just like urban CJs more then the CJs about terraforming and small scale development i guess

[patriots_1228 51]

SCS looks pretty distorted lol

Good update i like the district with smaller buildings, but it is busier than the rest!

[CWLGAMER01 39]

WOW! Great work -- Hong Kong is such an amazing city and you ahve captured that in your CJ. Great job and can't what for more updates!

[hijodecordoba 74]

the low-wealth market produces a great impression of the daily habits in Hong Kong. the whole cj does.

btw i want to ask if you are still working on your 4 season cj?

[sEAhAwk fAn121 0]

wow amazing update! love the low wealth and the photoshopping is amazing!

[jacqulina 162]

wow this is very nice work excellent building skills my friend,amazing pics

[Mikeaut1 261]

Wow awesome update. That last picture is edited quite nicely, it looks really cool!

[Hanson784 165]

Wow! I can't believe I haven't seen this before. Your work is amazingly realistic. It will look even more realistic when more Hong Kong BAT's are released.

[2ch.net simplayer 180]

Accuracy down to single buildings + digital art by photoshopping :-P

breathtaking..... but is there any way to increase the vehicle and pedestrian traffic? Streets are kinda quiet for HK.

[Cleaner475 150]

great BATs there - where did you get the Lippo ones from?

great pics - good work - keep it up,

Richard

[AceofSpades 1]

god thisis awesome. the photoshopped pic is sweet.

[Cypherus21 0]

Without a doubt, the best and most accurate Hong Kong depiction.

[Cockatoo 2,256]

Here are some real life pictures that we took while in Hong Kong. I've been using some of these as my base template for the Sim City re-creation. Sorry but most of the pictures were taken in November '06 so It's a little cloudy... Anyway, to start off here's the Real Life IFC 2 tower.

The Central Pier

Some old houses on the north side of Llama Island

Star Ferry Kowloon looking across to Central

The clouds are so low that the IFC 2 tower is over the clouds!

Star Ferry

The gateway on the Star Ferry. What's an OCTOPUS?

Ocean Terminal

Looking accross at Central Plaza and the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center

A bit further down past Central Plaza

The Far East Finance Center and The Lippo Towers. See the construction site?

The HSBC Tower, The Bank of China and Jardine House just to name a few!

The Hong Kong Island Star Ferry

The HSBC tower

In avenue GLR...

Streets of Hong Kong

Those trams again...

An old building near the Bank of China

On the streets! If you see you're self tell me

Nathan Road, Kowloon at night

Bixel's Victoria Towers in real life, outside Kowloon Park

Kowloon Park pond

Now an old photo. Some of the massive residential towers on the other side of Hong Kong Island. Some of them kinda look like the Garden Estate towers.

That wraps up Real Life Hong Kong. Now for some Sim City pics. Here's the other side of Kowloon Park

And see that big construction site, that's the ICC3 tower under construction

That's all from me.

[waldner 0]

Awesome!!!!!!!!

[Mikeaut1 261]

WOWWWWW!!! I love your real life examples and then your Sim City pics. Wow, that's really awesome!! Nice work!

[scififan68 23]

Awesome update!!

[hyped_up_boy 15]

awesome! if you need more pictures, i have some recent ones from march of this year. and "octopus" refers to the octopus cards in use in HK. it's basically a transit card that you can use on the KCR, MTR, and even the Star Ferry. and that old photo... is that Ocean Park? great work, it's certainly bringing back some good memories
