Hey all To inaugurate the new CJ section, I thought I could upload some random picture of my city's work in progress areas. Basically the main city and the region planning is done, but now the greatest work of all remains: building everything until the last detail!! All those blank spaces are the most difficult part of the city as to make them look realistic, but I'm trying. I'm starting with a Region view of the whole thing.

Surroundings

I've been developing the surrounding area of the main city, which I'm going to keep a secret as for now. But I'm uploading some pictures of the rural-suburban area near the river. Hope you like them!
