It's a wild and crazy ride along Rico River!

Rico River is a northern suburb of Rum Rock Harbor. The Rico, or "El Agua Diablo" as the locals like to call it, is a recreational paradise. However, it's claimed many souls over the years, as inexperienced and inebriated tourists have tried to tame these rocky rapids after drinking one too many Miller High Life's.

It's a great place to go camping if you like nature; it's a great place to hide if you're on the run from the cops.

"The Six O'clock" is rolling into Rico River Station. Those commuters smell like train diesel, sweat and failed business deals.

That's the Rico River industrial complex. Those hard working blue collar workers churn out lawn fertilizer, outdoor wear, and Snuggies.

There's the source of the Rico River. Meryl Streep once tried to run the Rico with Kevin Bacon after he kidnapped her and her son. Sadly, Kevin didn't make it. (Bonus points if you can name the reference.)

Rico High School is the home of the "Fighting Bass". The football team is a dismal 0 and 7 this year cause the players spend too much time down at the river trying to pick up sunbathing chicks.

Thanks for checking out my CJ. One of these days one of my pictures is gonna make it to the Simtropolis slideshow. Until that day, I'll just keep drinking and making cities. Feel free to leave a comment!

Great job with the river. While the MMP work and the village look good also. Finally I noticed you made extensive use of dogfight's plop rocks, it looks good but -- and this is a small nitpick -- along some parts of the river the rocks cut too sharply into the water.

 

I would recommend the FrankU Heblem Sand Addon, not only is it great for footpaths but it works great as a filler for the edge of rivers and lakes. In that fashion you can then control where you want a smooth river bank and a sharp one- full of boulders and crags. It also has the added bonus of being HD!

Rum Rock is in one of the beautifulest regions around! Yeah, you gotta watch out for that Devil's Waters (Rico River)....Legend has it that at exactly midnight on a full moon, the "Grabby hands of ole Rico Himself" rises up from the depths of them Devil Waters and drags its victims asunder!!!!

 

Love the collaborated SC4 CJ projects going on!!!
