Entry 73 -- Paxton South and East
Entry 73 -- Paxton (South and East)
Thanks a hell of a lot for your replies and comments!
The tour of Cindersville is only getting started! In this entry we go to the south-east corner of the city tile to the suburb of Paxton which is built around Paxton Mound.
This entry is a mixture of rural suburbs, the countryside and city blocks surrounding unblemished rural tracts. Let's go!

1.
The areas being explored today are the east (top) and south (right) parts of Paxton. To the left is Paxton Mound.
2.
From east to west.
3.
The eastern side of Paxton which starts to merge with another city area known as Hefnall (directly east of the city centre).
4.
The lone street higher up on the hill and overlooking Hefnall.
5.
Where's there hills there are often cloudy days.
6.
This sloping diagonal suburb took about an hour to complete as I had to create a smooth diagonal slope all without the growable residential buildings automatically digging into the ground. HARD. Furthermore it required careful positioning of the diagonal street sections too.
7.
From north to south.
8.
A mini stretch of pasture land.
9.
10.
One of the focal points of Paxton is this junction which is the main arterial road connecting east Paxton with south Paxton.
11.
12.
The southern part of Paxton is built upon a rolling hill which rises from the west and reaches it high point as seen in the top of the picture.
13.
From south to north.
14.
Making use of the "fog" options in the GIMP's render section to create random, atmospheric cloud.
15.
From east to west.
16.
These were some of the first rural areas to be MMPed and as such a lighter touch is applied here.
17.
A black day in the forest.
18.
19.
Forest mist.
20.
Sudden Valley terrain textures rule!
21.
22.
23.
This is one of Mattb325's FAR churches. Cool stuff!
24.
I also built MMP church grounds in the city block this church is located upon.
25.
26.
Moving into the western part of Paxton.
27.
The FA police station is another one of Mattb325's creations! They come in overhanging versions and also orthogonal versions too.

29.
A night-time overview of the area.
30.
Looking down through a cloudy night.

And the final picture...

Thank you for viewing!
This Monday we're moving into the main valley, Cinders Valley, and to a southern area of Cindersville which is Chumley. This area is an extension of sorts of the city centre as the larger buildings are crammed into an increasingly narrow stretch of flat land. Note also that Chumley borders Paxton upon Paxton's western side so there is a connection to these entries!
Coming this Monday-
Enjoy the weekend!
