England! That Green Pleasant Land!

[Giligone 10]

Great neighbourhoods. Are those based on a real place?

[Callbat 8]

Giligone: Yes! all of my pictures so far are from Balham, london SW12.

Heres a reference map for you all:

Balham is in the area named Wandsworth.

[The Big Z 103]

I can't wait to that area to be finished, Jayo! Its going to be sooo awesome!

[gndrew 0]

Wow awesome neighborhoods and plans my friend! I can't wait to see the finished product!

i like your well thought out style, cohesive and well organized, nice work.

[Smarty218 2]

Great map, looks promising. A nice place to build...

[edmonton_stinks 5]

Is Lambeth nice? I guess I've heard bad things about it but that may just be thanks to the Brixton riots and the song it spawned.

[suplado! 23]

wow -- cant wait for another ingame pics of your work....

[Callbat 8]

by the way everyone:The map is of the whole of the London Metropolitain Area......

[Smarty218 2]

Wow, so are you going to do the city too? With your skills that would be quite a sight.

[Mike the Mayor 51]

Looks great, nice map, look forward to it.

Nice work guys! It looks like it's coming along nicely! Great job!

[edmonton_stinks 5]

Well obviously it's not, I was just saying that London is the only English experience I've had.

Guess you can't judge an area by one thing that happens, can you? All social commentary aside, it all looks great so far and I can't wait to see what you have in store for us.

[jayo 44]

Listen callbat-I'm gonna start a seperate thread for me-I don't think its fair if in invade your thread But i can still help you and give you pictures

[storms991 0]

Love it!

ILL Tonkso: Hehe, its fine dont worry . I would really appreciate it if you modelled some victorian or georgian buildings though... as well as some art deco for the inner city

I feel the same way; he never actually does it though.

Just by looking at your city makes me want to begin playing again!

[Callbat 8]

connorc24: Thanks connor! nice to see you around mate!

edmonton_stinks: yeah, well London does have a lot of English stuff but most of it is now just tourists attractions or nothing special at all because of all the tourism and immigration.......he, wont get into that now....but anyway, thanks for posting!

jayo: Yeah, sure! you can come back and post here anytime you want, this can still be a joint project cant it though? ..with two threads?

storms991: yeah, I find a real lack of British "city centre" type things on the stex or lex or whatever.....
