    Hey hey hey!

     

    Been busy working on the downtown area, which is quite some work!

    Only a small part is yet complete but here's what i got so far:

     

    The Central Station. In the background you spot what is to become the modern part of the downtown with a few taller buidlings. This part is far from complete though.

    One of three mayor in/out flows of the city:

    One  of the main squares just next to the station:

    Last one for today:

    Still some gaps to fill in and alot of detailing to be done :-)

    So anyway...still working on the port.

    So far i've got one container terminal, one cruise ship terminal, one "mineral terminal" and one ferry terminal.

    Next step will be to add an oil terminal aswell.

     

    The cruise terminal:

    The container terminal:

    The "mineral terminal"

    Rs4vXYH.jpg

     

    The ferry terminal:

    DqvRDcg.jpg

    LKaUMPN.jpg

     

    Ending with one overview shot of what i got so far:

    cNGXdji.jpg

     

    Next up I will either continue with another part of the port or ill start with the downtown area...not sure yet :-)

     

    See ya!

    Crappy Swedish weather means alot of indoor time!

     

    Ill start of with a overview shot.

    Im currently working on the central station (top middle of the shot).

    The outer parts of the downtown (which will be mostly industrial) still has a long way to go. I have more or less just placed the roads and some of the buildings.

    cEFJVQC.jpg

     

    The central business district which will house the tallest buildings in the city:

    V0ZdZAb.jpg

    mwPwjV5.jpg

     

    As stated earlier, I have focused alot on the rivers with the marinas and so on.

    8vG0BOI.jpg

     

    To the left you can spot the central station (WIP)

    771hnAP.jpg

     

    One of the main bus hubs in the city. This one is just next to the central station:

    z622sdG.jpg

     

    One of the very important highways of the city:

    Two random shots :-)

    Haha oh i think you would reconsider when you first see the death waves, the garbage piling up and the lack of water/electricity from time to time :-D

    Heya!

     

    Been a while since the last update. Havnt had that much time to play but some progress has been made:

     

    Overview shot. At the moment the polulation is ~90.000.

    bdn5Pvg.jpg

     

    I completed the central station: (quite small though, almost too small for the size of the city...)

    An extension of the downtown:

    One of the biggest attractions of the city, the football stadium!

    It can easily be reached with public transportation; Bus/Tram/Monorail:

    One of the hihways going through the downtown area:

    The harbour in the background:

    N8VHKFT.jpg

     

     

    I intend to implement a ferry system in the city. This is the first and only stop so far:

    Looks amazing! Love the details around the harbors and the marinas.

     

    Lots of great inspiration I can take away for my own cities when I get a chance to play again.

    GecrKjg.jpg

     

    Not much to say, a hotel complex close to the water with a "not so nice" beach:

    t0D4T9p.jpg

     

    Some shoping close to one of the highways:

    sW9wBv5.jpg

     

    A railway cutting through the city. Bad planning I'd say!

    sL5vOtt.jpg

     

    A industrial area close to one of the rivers. This is the area im currently working on:

    Heya!

     

    Here follow the last update of this project. Atleast for the time being.

    Current population is around 170.000.

     

    Most of the city in one frame:

    I3ExnmT.jpg

     

    The area to the right is the one which will end this project:

    RncinOq.jpg

     

    Its quite industrial-heavy compared to the down town area.

    E7emi5I.jpg

    D3yuzBF.jpg

     

    I decided to put in a second train station:

    rYdpP3v.jpg

    nvdJNf3.jpg

     

    I will end with another overview shot:

    v4gLto2.jpg

     

    My next project will be re-creating my hometown of Malmö/Sweden.

    Just started but should have some shots ready during the next week :-)

    Heya!

    Some screens of Malmö!

    Still a heavy work in progress, so bear with me!

     

    Due to the fact that there was a great asset on the workshop of Malmö Central Station this is where i started the work.

    The screen below: Overview of the "passenger part" of the railyard. The two tracks you see going down the tunnel is the "newish" Citytunneln, which goes under central Malmö with a total of 3 stations, Central station, Triangeln and Hyllie.

    dpd7T1p.jpg

     

    The industrial buildings to the right are currently being demolished on order to house new, modern buildings.

    EQ0GJ6A.jpg

     

    A closer look:

    SjWi26A.jpg

     

    A common sight, Pågatågen, Öresundstågen and the Intercity SJ-trains

    sGJjcOn.jpg

     

    The station from another angle.

    rC7BSlf.jpg

     

    The bus hub in front of the station. (in the look-out for some green buses which is the standard color of the buses that drives in the city, no luck yet though :-( )

    It looks really amazing *-*   

    As I see, those platforms at the trainstation are longer than normal, which props you've used to extend them? Best seen on image no. 4.

    Excuse my bad english, i don't speak it often..

    Looks great so far.. what I love the most is the canal on the side, love how it isn't perfectly straight but has those little kinks that make it look much more realistic.

     

    The sunken train lines that run to the tunnels on the right side of the train station in the first picture is what I love doing, and playing around with when I play.

     

    I really enjoyed this update, can't wait to see more!
