Welcome to my new cj, some of you know me, many don't, i have a distinct style many of you already know, i have been experimenting with a few new ideas applied in the same old ways, here are a few pics to wet your appetite.  I apologize for the low quality and sketchyness but time is hard to come by these days. Enjoy peeps, later, Alek.

Great to see you return to city journals. Great downtown and Seaport. The diagonal Highway is handled nicely and the alley way highway looks great too.

Nice mix of diagonals near the freeways, and you've captured the repetitiveness of the suburbs pretty well too.

Gosh! This is gonna slaughter Metropolis...oh well.

Here is my quote for you: "Behold the king. The king of kings!"

Edit: How big is your plugins folder? Just looking at these pics it must be massive...

Great work, AK! I'm really liking the usage of the diag buildings. I'm glad someone actually made some so we can have even more realistic transit systems now.

Great to see all of these Simtrop veterans come back to CJs! Makes me feel all tingly inside. Well, okay not really. I remember when I just joined ST, and I saw Brastoval Bay, and I was like "Wow". It really made me into a hardcore Sim City 4 fan. But, unfortunately, this CJ does not give me the same effect. I feel like you've given us the same thing over and over again, and now it just seems boring. Still outstanding work! Just needs a little umph.

Hail ! 

The Urban King is back!

Like Carly Simon used to sing :

"Nobody does it better...."

And I concur with her, urban setups are your forte my friend.

Kudos for that closeup pic with buildings on each side of the highway.... nicely done!

I'll sure be lurking, and hopefully commenting once in a while.

(same problem with free time here...)

All the best to you Alek...

-John

    Great teaser and great little river splitting the picture. I like that stadium in the right corner. Looking forward to whenever you get that update out.
