RandyE: Thanks a lot! With all the LUT's and map themes, you can get some really stellar shots of this game these days. Glad you enjoy.

Takingyouthere:Thanks! I'm not so experienced when it comes to making industrial areas or power complexes. I usually don't focus much on them, so I'm glad you like them. I get what you're saying about the smokestacks, haha, but it's a trade-off, I suppose.

raynev1: That's some high praise! SC4 is so iconic and has such a great community here at Simtropolis behind it, it can be hard (daunting even) to begin exploring another game. I came into the SC4 scene really late, so it was easy for me to start "fresh" with Skylines. It's not as deep and doesn't have as much flexibility as SC4 yet, but Skylines is a great tool for creating some beautiful cities.

Sunrise in the valley. Today, we're visiting a small collection of locally owned and operated farms. Harvests aren't huge, but there's enough to squeak out a living. Rise and shine...and get to work.

The pigs are already snuffing around in their pens looking for their morning slop. The Pork industry considered Snake River Valley a lost cause, as you just can't sustain industrial-level mega-farms. But the pigs that do live here---well---they're delicious.

A variety of crops grow here, albeit in small numbers. Agave is one of the big guns here, and there's a Tequila distillery in the area.

Also near here are the Royal Canter Stables. A local family breeds horses here and offers riding lessons for locals and visitors alike.

An early morning, pre-breakfast brushing...ah. It's the life.

The farmland sure is peaceful and serene.

Hope you enjoy!

I guess you're more up to date here. :lol:

I absolutely love the amount of detail you're putting into everything. I also like how every district you've shown us has it's own personality.

Looking forward to seeing more of this!

beautiful. do you use some extra mods to achieve this tropical look (except of course tropicity theme and LUT which you have mentioned before) ? I do use this theme as well but my feeling is not such a hot prairie;-)
