Hello everyone! Today, we're going to continue our tour of Arquennes' old city Let's go! 24. ARQUENNES - OLD CITY (2) 1.

Now, they attract many tourists. The cathedral's tower can be seen from many kilometers around. 2. On the right, the simply named Arquennes Museum, it was built in 1923 to show the many pieces of art that the...

Arquennes - Introduction

By feyss,

Hi everyone! It seems that almost a year has passed since the last update. As usual, I've been losing interest for the game then came back to it and started working on different projects without finishing them. And you all know that I'm quite slow... The play time counter from Steam is for instance quite depressing for me to see It's time for me to introduce Arquennes, the city that will interest us in the next updates. The idea, as you may have seen, was to create some kind of regional middle town...

Hi everyone! Here is the sequel of my last update with some mosaics. I think it's what I will do in my next updates: one bunch of 'normal' pictures, and then some mosaics, because what's better than this for showing a city?

From top to bottom: the Old Harbour Station and its brand new office buildings, the 'Hertogsvaart' (Duke's canal), the...

Hello guys! As said previously, even though I decided to give up with Olsènes, I promised to post some unfinished pictures. I was thinking that those parts of the city, even if they look like crap, were still deserving to be featured on an update. I also thought this would interest some of you to see how the city was planned. Thus, I will explain here neighbourhood by neighbourhood what I was planning to do. ps: please don't mind the bad quality, as I said it's unfinished work 19. OLSENES - UNFINISHED...

Hello everyone! Simply a little preview today: Stay tuned! - REPLIES - @tariely Thank you! I also love those river banks. The municipality wanted to make them a wandering place, it's why there is no parking. You can park on the other side of the river though. I also like those metro station with their modern look in the middle of a 'classic' neighbourhood. @TekindusT Thanks a lot! @kschmidt You're welcome, thank you! The green GLR is part of the NAM, it's just below the avenue-GLR puzzle pieces in the...
