Entry 41 -- North-east Pololomia

Replies:

dmn: Thank you!

necroshine123: There's a lot more to come, plus I'm working on other new projects such as the hilly and mountainous Cindersville.

TowerDude: I would move into one of those villas if there was a back garden skatepark, then again, if I had the money to afford a villa then I could quite easily build my own backyard skatepark!

Altec: From the distance each suburb and city block blends in well. But each city block usually takes 10-30 minutes and the suburbs take about 2 to 8 hours to complete, because of all those details and fillers. A lot of the details also come from the suburb lotting of those who created the buildings and fillers.

Takingyouthere: Thanks! Paeng's bike paths are very versatile fillers!

Entry 41: North-east Pololomia

This entry has yet more suburbs and details the north-east outskirts of Pololomia, outskirts which give way to fields and small village rows. There's some diagonals, a bit of FA, a shopping mall and even a small racecourse (horse racing).

Mattb325's Pine Valley Mall -- https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2570

This mall has several transit-enabled entrances.

And dragging a perimeter of roads around the mall is too easy; what is required is fillers and a bit of spacing from the main roads to make this mall really stand out!

Bipin's gas stations (https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=3238) can be placed just about anywhere and still fit in!

To the far right is the outskirts of Mowden- an eastern suburb of Pololomia.

This is either Kingofsimcity's or rsc204's tennis court...

Someone make a new diagonal housing set before I overuse Simcoug's diagonal houses!

And now the suburbs give way to fields and village rows.

All the fields are made using MMPs- it's a slow process!

Orthogonal meets fractionally-angled.

Still waiting for the fractionally-angled houses though!

And here is the racecourse.

I added in Kingofsimcity's car parks and a few path pieces from Paeng's parks to flesh out the racecourse lot.

This Friday, or Saturday, I will be posting another entry which shows the industry in north-west Pololomia. After that we're going to Madison Plains- a new city tile I have very recently completed. Believe it or not, I finished off Pololomia almost a year ago!

Anyway, a preview of the next entry:

Until then, have a good week!

 

Bonus:

A little recap of Pololomia!

Thats a really nice full tile you've got there. Especially loving the industry and the building in picture number 9, and of course, all your usual gorgeous neighbourhood work!

I really enjoy the efforts you put into creating “blank” spaces within and around your suburb! I also like the variety of roads you used, and the coherence of the infrastructures you chose. Now, I’m really impatient to see Madison Plains and how your style evolved after 1 year :ooh:

Thanks! It's why I build on every last square of the city tile, so that every area fits in!
