Update 2


Sorry about the delay, been having connection issues Here are a few random pics from around the region. Remember if the pictures are pixelated click on them for higher res.


Heres some resedential high-rises in Portsmouth which is south of Trementon but still in the metro area. And yes sometimes Maxis buildings really do look good.

Some new skyscrapers in Portsmouth. The greenish looking one is the headquarters of the Sun Oil company. And the one next to it is 115 Park street, a mixed use skyscraper.

Another new skyscraper (the wide one) in Tremonton, Xavier Tower.

Highway 15 plunges under the Frisco river on its way out of town.

A nice little park north of Downtown

The local Mosque. This area has a fairly large Muslim population.

Ross Stadium home of the Trementon Whalers

And finally a pic of the developed part of my region.

Ohh yeah, BTW, could someone tell me how to change the topic description?

nevermind

Very diverse. Your city planning skills are quite well honed.

2Nerdy4U- thanks for the encouragement!

Mikeaut1- ohh, this is not the biggest region ive ever made, I got one with 2.7 million people, but that was deleted

[KingTitan 6]

Looks great. Love that 3D effect.

[Skram 4]

Nice town, good use of custom content!Keep it up.

[suplado! 23]

cool pics...really like the color effects! the city looks great -- the buildings looks nice together! everything is so good....

[2nerdy4u 1]

Woah. Love the second pic with all the skyscrapers. Awesome.

[Smarty218 2]

Fantastic job, the city hall looks nice and the skyscrapers are great.

[bbfan02 23]

Excellent upddate! The bridge looks great. I also like the skyscrapers. Well done.

[edmonton_stinks 5]

Wow, lots of highrises. I like Maxis myself, in moderation, and as long as there's variety.

Update!!! (finally)

Here is Tremonton International. Ive been working on it for a week, and its nearly complete. 

There are 5 runways, 32 gates, a mono-rail line, 5,000 parking spaces and two highways connecting to it. It takes up nearly half of a large city tile. 

Heres some shots taken at the airport.

 

The main entrance(s) featuring a replica of a WWII bomber.

A plane loads while the sun sets

Its a hot day, todays high is expected to reach 105; local highway report- 15 is clogged as usual, and there are reports of an accident on South Bay avenue, other than that everythings movin' along and there are no airport delays.

Hey, look! Visitors!

All- thanks for your awesome comments and presence.

bbfan02- I got the bridge idea, when i saw the scene in War of The Worlds movie where they show a Boston in ruins with the Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge still standing. Glad you like it, and the skyscrapers.

edmonton_stinks- I totaly agree with using maxis content, as long as its appropriate and not repetitive. 

More pics to come, and maybe an article out of the Tremonton Tribune in the future, so, watch out!

[suplado! 23]

awesome airport pics...really like the roundabout design!! again -- really cool color effects...!!

[jacqulina 162]

wow you are doing so well here excellent downtown and really nice pic effects my friend

[Mike the Mayor 51]

Awesome stuff mate! All your pictures are so high quality and nice picture effects. I like the water modd as well, it really goes well with your city!

[Smarty218 2]

Very realistic, far beyond my capabilities.

[GingerBlokey 30]

Wow, an amazing airport. I love the Spitfire on the roundabout especially the second picture looks nice.

[edmonton_stinks 5]

That airport is amazing! Very well done, the bomber fits in well.

[bbfan02 23]

Wow, excellent job on the airport! I like the layout and also the round-about filler!

-bbfan02-

[2nerdy4u 1]

Nice airport. The bomber in the roundabout is very, very nice.

[Cleaner475 150]

where did you get the plane roundabout? that looks awesome, very nice airport and shining pics, I love it - thats some heat wave (if I take it you don't mean Centigrade but Fahrenheit because I reckon of wise everyone woul have shrivled up and died from the heat )

Im back with some new pictures. This time were going a little out of town into some suburbs. There are hundreds of trees and numerous parks and some nice little homes. Plus, I have ditched the grid almost entirely with roads winding all over the place. 

The town of Davis, about 8 miles (I think) southwest of downtown.

Some houses along a busy Hill Rd. These people living here have the best radio reception in town, as the broadcast tower is just a short hike up the hill. (you can see a sliver of it to the extreme far right)

Highway 15 is a 4 lane tree lined highway through the city of Manchester then widens to 6 lanes while passing through a quiet neighborhood. 

Yet another suburb.

A nice little path through the woods in autumn.

Now for replies...

suplado- thanks, glad you like what Ive done

jacqulina-Hi! thanks!

Mike the Mayor- The water mod is actually not showing up right, but people like it and it looks good, so Ill leave it. And thinks for the comment, I appreciate it.

Smarty218- Hey, give it time, and youll get better at it! Practice makes perfect.

GingerBlokey- It turned out a lot better than I thought it would; its my first time doing a project like that. Thanks for visiting and supporting! And I like your Trixie!

edmonton_stinks- Thank you!

bbfan02- glad you like it!

2nerdy4u- I thinks so too.

cleaner475- Richard i got the filler right here (link)

I would hope its Fahrenheit, because that would be one hot tarmac.. 

[suplado! 23]

wow -- the suburb area looks nice! but -- a street could also be cool there...!! the last pic is so pretty -- really like it!!

[GlobalHaze 1]

WHOA MASSIVE REGION!
