    Awesome as usual! And it's alright that I can't be involved, I'll live. Besides, I'm involved in like 3 other CJs!

    Looks really cool! Was the underground mall inspired by Toronto?

    Some excellent new developments. 19.gif
     
    I believe I most like the first pic: a university area nestled in a pocket surrounded by peaceful forest, interrupted only by a nicely-placed train station.  The muffled-green roof of the university proper makes that building a good pick for this location, IMO, as it contrasts well against the darkened reddish hue of the dormitory housing.  Adding to this is the natural green of the surrounding woodland, which helps to again highlight the green roof of university proper and set up an intriguing color alternating effect.
     
    Another admirable touch is the copious supply of parking spaces at the complex's center and around the train station, bringing in a fresh air of realism.  Nice. 10.gif
     
    Also, the turbine power plant (the new from a electricity as you described 18.gif) looks very good in that relatively advanced industrial area.  Clean, sleek, and cool overall.
     
     
    On a different note, I wonder what political ties the gunman may acknowledge when s/he is caught...38.gif

    I don't know how you come up with this story, but it's so real. This story could be the history of a real city or country. Everytime the storyline has somekind of twist which, I think, is wonderfull.Maybe that's the advantage of an interactive journal. You canb change your story if somebody gives you a goodidea. Keep up this excellent work!! 44.gif44.gif UP!

    Love the continuing story line 44.gifand have since the beginning.

     
    I really like the how the train station sneaks up to the back side of the dorms by the University.  I would imagine it helps to keep car traffic down and encourage the students to walk more....10.gif

    Well, he confessed after hours of torture. Not deadly tortures, just very painful tortures.29.gif

    Very good, as ever. Just subscribed for the very first time to a topic!

    You inspired me to begin my own journal. Not on great scale, with skyscrapers and large buildings. But a small(er) town with an exciting story! Turnwood is an eye-opener on storytelling. Well, to me it is. Keep up the good work! And make sure some people live to tell the story....lol

    Awesome, although you'd think with all the skyscrapers that more people lived there. But they're built by the corporations, right? I remember you mentioning that a while back...
