raynev1 - Drift will come.... Next update. :) 

airman15 - The GTR comes later in a few updates.. :)

KRMill09 - I use a mix of Conifers, Firs, Oaks, Maples, Chestnuts, ashes, bushes and lupins from Girafe, as well as Cherrys from Uki and neko.

Takemethere - I decided not to bother making a clear way for the pylons and instead let the forest run right under it.. The pylons are already quite tall so I don't think the trees are gonna be of any problem in the far future. :)

kschmidt - Well the river is straight because it is build using pieces from neko's japanese rural river.. ;)

Since the preparations are finished, I'll really start showing pictures from the actual project I had in mind. It's not much really, but I'm just going to showcase scenes inspired by the manga/anime Initial D. Right now for today will be just some shots of the main city, Akina. The next update will start talking about the protagonist of the mini-series.
All pictures are available in full resolution. (1280x1024)

It's really a pain in the bottom to fill large city tiles with farms and trees... Makes the game so slow when you add the shadows..

That night shot at #5 is great, Art.  I assume that's a government housing project in #7-9- they seem to look the same wherever they are.  Five star stuff, in any event.  Liked and followed.

Impressive as always. Really excited that you're doing something inspired by Initial D. Great idea. What are those buildings in right-hand side of the 3rd pic?

Great job with the lotting. It must have been really tedious to lot all those buildings.

Immaculate work, as always!
The overhead telephone lines are fit the scene perfectly! Each detail you have added to these images never ceases to amaze! I noticed my S10's in the pictures, and if you're interested, I uploaded a set of late 1990's Subaru Legacy models to the exchange not too long ago. As far as I have looked, it is the only file for this particular brand.

How did I miss that CJ before ? Nice variety of buildings and great set-ups, and real walking spaces between buildings !:-). A tile/city that breathes I always like ! I love the one before last picture ; and would love to know what that orange brick building is in the commercial shot (before its wonderful night version) ; in fact I'd like to know what all three buildings are, going to the right corner or that row. And where did you find that ramp (on the right ? and...:-)))

The buildings, including the ramp and the station are all from me.. I'll make them available at some point during the month of December. I'm not telling when or for what occasion, you'll find out soon enough. :)

Yup this is a late post, but I don't know how I missed this back at the time. I love the little details and verity that you managed to jam pack in just a few small images.
