Virgin Shores (4)

[Vahr 341]

So, VSDoT is in need of an official signmaker(s) (if plural/working in a team (must specify), signage must be consistent!).

Anyone interested please PM me, provide examples to strengthen your case, and I will decide. Obviously, your models must be yours and not stolen from someone else.

In your application, you must also show your version of this sign:

This sign is a side overhead/overhanging sign for RHW-4.

The RHW-4 texture is provided here.

©2011 NAM Team

A suitable metal texture must be found on your own. Signs must have backings.

In your application, provide the front and back views of the sign, in zoom 5 and 6 (5 HD) for a total of 4 images. Include the RHW-4. If your sign has nightlighting, provide the 4 views in night as well. Remember these signs must be readable in Zoom 6, but not oversized (balance scale with readability)

Good luck to everyone!

Nice ads everybody, and congrats again to the winners! They have all been contacted and are ready to go to work.

I'm not going to reply to every post (campaign ads don't really need replies), and should continue to do so. The point of having a council is for me not to have to do everything anyway.

REPLIES:

Kenny (kj3400): You'll be fine. It's not like people will be depending on you or anything...

Dan (dfnva): Dan! Thanks for stopping by. Glad to hear it! There should be plenty of good roadgeekery in here once it really gets going.

Oh and guys, don't be daunted by Vince's requirements for sign maker. I'm sure there are several of you competent enough to do it.

And to keep you all excited, I have a couple more teasers today!

The town of Acre, located about 7 km south of Cacklington and 4 km north of Abstergo Bay.

A closeup of the Warren Vidic Bridge, which carries Primary Highway 89 from Acre, where it begins at P10, to Abstergo Bay, a sizable city to the south (left of the picture).

I like the varying elevations! Very scenic! Maybe we could use a general aviation airport somewhere in the vicinity... maybe for air tours...

[Frdm920 50]

Very nice!

Acre and Warren Vidic Bridge huh? Someone's been playing a certain game too long

Like the land bridge over the valley, now if only SC4 would let you build stuff under it then you could make it even more awesome

[mightygoose 92]

lovely teasers

[Follarch 326]

Cliffs and valleys and bridges oh my! D:

The terrain is just to die for Connor! Beautiful land to place a town, and a nice highway network! That tunnel must be quite a distance to drive down, and only to come out on a beautiful span.

Oh and Vincey, your requirements scare me. xD

[cacks 41]

Wow that is nice RHW and the bridge . The terrain just south of Cacklington is awesome! nice work.

[big_nkrumah 2]

This looks fantastic! Can't wait for more.

[ecoba 28]

Firstly, Vince: those requirements kinda made me want to go in the corner and huddle in a ball and cry. 

Now, Connor. I like the terrain of that tile- shall be interesting to see the final product (well- just a few more farms and that'd be it, eh? ). Oh my god there's a town there, too (I swear I did not even notice that until I looked at the picture again just now, silly me ). I already saw the bridge too (you made me not go watch some bad TV to see it, I think, or was that some other time. I don't know. Wow, the majority of this post is in parentheses. That's kinda weird, ahaha), but I still rather adore it. It's very realistic, with the... erm, enbankments. Yeah, those. 

xo! 

[deathtopumpkins 43]

Well guys, we've found ourselves a sign maker!

ryanb_sc4 will from now on be BATting the signs for Virgin Shores, which will be the focus of an update in the near future, as we follow sign crews around the region putting them up.

[Ryan B 35]

I look forward to contributing to this awesome effort!

[mightygoose 92]

achem, does he have planning permission for these signs XD

[Follarch 326]

Oh wow, 8 trixies and all of them NAM team awards. It's hard to say the guy is not qualified to make the road signs.

[kj3400 178]

It seems we have a professional here, so the signs'll be the best.

Beautiful bridge, reminds me of one I have, but nowhere as spectular as that one.

[Ryan B 35]

I have here some preview renders to tease y'all with.  Without further ado:

Coming soon to Virgin Shores!

[dfnva 34]

Wow those signs sure look like ones from Virginia, haha!

[Benedict 3,119]

Congratulations, Virgin Shores is number one on Ben's Top Ten for the second week in a row.

Mikey (Archean) and Kenny (kj3400): Thanks!

Ryan (ryanb_sc4): You already know how I feel about those signs...

Dan (dfnva): I wonder why... haha

Benedict: Thanks, again! Too bad that was the last post before a week of silence lol.

Well I've had a crapload of drama recently (not to mention exams the first part of this week), so I haven't been able to update, but I have sure been busy the past couple of days. SC4 is a great way to work off some emotions...

Anyway, I've been working on Abstergo Bay some more, and have a few teasers for you guys. When I'm done with this city I will probably do some large updates that focus on a tour of it.

[Frdm920 50]

Awesome

*packs his bags and moves in*

[wwetom1 831]

Very nice! So far, Abstergo Bay looks great! I like how you use those JPN Walls too.

Can't wait for more.

[mightygoose 92]

achem.

Yeah, AMIDOINITRITE?

[Vahr 341]

I think you already know how I feel about those pics, so

And oh, what's this?

*picks up note*

"Lack of traffic"!?! I must remedy this! Let them have PLAY BUTTON!

[suomi2005 52]

Very nice cj. I like your road networks and building selection and the city looks green.

[cacks 41]

ST just had to be down for so long that I couldn't see these pictures X(.. oh well now that i have I can surely say that Annapolis is beautiful (... lets compare it to Cacklington though)

Moar. moar. moar.

[deathtopumpkins 43]

Yup mightygoose, you are.

That means that the Virgin Shores Planning Department is now accepting proposals to build a new building on that lot. If you would like to leave your mark on the city, please feel free to post here with a link to download the building of your choice, as long as it fits and meets the Planning Department's criteria.

[Ntq€310 1]

Awesome update connor.

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Looks good, can't wait for more!

[ecoba 28]

Oh, I'm pleased I make your day, hun. lol. 

Anyway, I'm loving this city. I think the second picture may be my favourite, I just like the way the homes are positioned for some reason. I think they may need some sound walls near that interchange, eh? I don't know if I'd want to live that close (but, that's just me ).

I already saw the avenue in the last picture, no? Anyway, I love it. 

xo! 

[Wrightguy0 40]

they've started planning, what could mightygoose want with that old corner property, will the old man that lives there find new digs, and how much is the property?

i may put something there, but i may wait until abstergo bay is done totally, hmmm...

the excitement is building D:

[kj3400 178]

It seems a bit odd for the freeway to be so close to development, but otherwise, everything looks awesome.
