    Wow, Awseome CJ! Terraforming, great photoshopping presentation (Wish you could teach me a thing or 2) and best of all I love all the bridges, walkways and highways!! The water mod you have looks fantastic with the seaweed and rocks!! Stunning. Cant wait to hear more about the collunms stickin out of the water. And thats all at a quick glance cuz it late but I cant wait to see more, I love the way you give the step by steps.

    Well, as I'll say in all the long-running CJs that I haven't been following, I've never visited your great CJ and the awesome CJs of others that fit into the category because I like to start reading a CJ from the beginning so that I won't miss anything. However, I've decided to stop doing that and just come in and look at your last update because I've heard that you and the others have great SC4 talents. So here I am...

    Now for your CJ: That park looks awesome with all the detailed stuff like the observation decks, the suspended pedestrian walkway, and all the streams with the rapids and just the whole hilly area in general. You are a truly talented SC4 player, and I will follow this CJ from now on!

    wallasey: Hey buddy. It's been a long time. I hope your doing well? Thanks for visiting. I hope you'll continue with your journal..

    owenluby: Always a pleasure to have you comment in my journal my friend.44.gif

    collgab: I guess we have something in common because I seem to say the same thing about your great journal too. Thanks again my good friend...1.gif

    usnaguy. Thanks my friend. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by the beach. If you mean the beach color texture it's a mod which can be found here. There are also some great beaches to be found here.

    st louis dude: Hey buddy, actually I already have a resort area in another city. Chech back to pages 4 and 5 if your interested. Thanks for stopping by. I hope to see you again my friend..

    bat: Thanks for your great support my friend..

    patriots_1228: Thanks my good friend. 

    I should have an update either tomorrow or Saturday. I'm re-working my underwater ruins area. I have a couple of specially designed BAT's for it as well as a special version (underwater ruin) of Kwakelaar's Sciffenberg church. He was kind enough to make it for me.

    Below is a teaser pic of the area I'll be re-doing (upper part of the pic).

    Enjoy..

    That's really a great CJ. The park on the top of the page is awesome and so is the beach development. It's nice that you show how you do it also.

    Update 35 Dedicated to owenluby Water water everywhere...

    macedonasorchincj2wx.gif

    I have decided to "revisit" my underwater ruins area of Sleepy Bay (my very first city)

    macedonmosaicupdate6ho.th.jpg

    The first pic is a layout of the area:

    ruinsstartsc9.jpg

    Lets move to the right a little:

    ruinsdc5.jpg

    Kwakelaar was kind enough to create a "Ruined Schiffenberg Church" for me to plop specifically into 

    the water:

    ruins1ca4.jpg

    another angle:

    ruins2am0.jpg

    a tourist boat approaches:

    ruins3ht1.jpg

    a city long ago once thrived here no doubt:

    ruins4rh5.jpg

    very old stairs and a boardwalk have fallen into disrepair:

    ruins5lo7.jpg

    Hopefully that tourist boat won't get too close, otherwise this could happen:

    ruins6dw6.jpg

    Ancient homes line what appears to be a major street of it's time:

    ruins7so1.jpg

    more of the same in a different part of the ruined city:

    ruins8jd9.jpg

    An ancient Stairway:

    ruins9qa4.jpg

    More of the same:

    ruins10bj7.jpg

    All finished for today

    Have an amazing day everyone
