Sebassis is the first settlement on Crab Island.

Lets start off with the Industrial areas.

]Here we have the main power source, windmills

Ok, thats it for the first update. Next update will be showcasing Sebassis's farms, commercial areas and residents. Then further updates will take you into the journey of Sebassis's city exapand project.

    Ok, onto the next update.

    //-----------------------------------------------------//

    Update1A: The Little Farm-

    Sebassis land isn't very good for growing crops, however there is a small area with rich fertile soil, and managed to build small farms.

    //-----------------------------------------------------//

    Hmm, a closer look at the farms.

    I think that somy's bat stands out a bit in that location... However, I like the rest of the town. It's not bad 1.gif The logo on first picture looks great!

    Very nice.  Looks promising.  The penninsula looks really good.

    Personally, I don't think anything stands out objectionably.  The petroleum stacks remind me of my home in Japan.  Small town, giant oil power plant.  You could see it for miles.

    Update1B- The town centre

    After a few years, Investors from other regions heard about the rich quality of petroleum produced by sebassis petroleum estate (SPE). Sebassis needed to expand commercial areas, but its still not enough. The Mayor proposed a City exapnd project by next year.(which is after this update)

    //---------------------------------------------//

    Good job! I really like this city. I've got one suggestion. When you do your photoshopping, I think that it's better to have a darker frame around a brighter picture than a bright frame around a dark picture (what you're doing now). It will make the pictures more vividly coloured.

    As you can see, I din't use alot of custom BATs.

    Im not done with the other expand project yet. After completing all the projects, i'll start to beautify the city, with seawalls & stuff, and add some highways.

    Well, my next city is gonna be shipping ports and habours, the whole map will be industrialized.

    Looks like a good start. My only suggestion would be to not use roads for the city boundaries - build on the other side of those roads as well. Towns look a little funny fenced in by those roads when normally there is development on both sides of a road. The town center and the suburbs are developing nicely. 9.gif

    Update4- Dirty town & The Last look

    //----------------------------//

    Everyone thought the new town exapand project was gonna be a hit, but turns out that yesterday, the mayor confessed that the project was built over an ancient chinese burial ground.

    Though it doesn't bother some commuters, and the zones are not developing.

    Ok enough of that, a new building has arrivived in town square, and tourist attractions, like the Pier and lovely private chalets. Take a good last look at sebassis, cuz this is the final update on sebassis =P Next update is gonna be Port Island- city of trading.

    your city is coming along nicely...that is a nice skyscraper, however hopefully taller buildings fill in around it

    the farm area is great too and the private chalet's are top notch
