    Another fantastic review Twiggy. I know I've said before, but I'm saying it again: You are an amazing writer.

    Gah, another review stolen. I deserve it for being on vacation. Nice review Pat, but I can't see the second pic either.

    Dierapyámuk Myon 2 Leech10 Leech10’s action-packed sci-fi CJ resembles nothing you’ve ever seen on this world. Undoubtedly, Leech10’s unique style and technique force one to question the true origins of this famed CJer. Departing from the more traditional CJ format, Dierapyámuk Myon 2 displays some of Leech10’s other abilities. Meet the cast. Leech10 introduces his characters and gives some of their characteristics. As most people already know, Leech10 is well-known for the busts of his characters. Leech10 uses SC4 and some BATs in a way so that they fit into the story like the final jigsaw piece in an enormous puzzle. Leech10’s photoshopping is remarkable. There’s a whole update on the most recent page in which Leech10 transforms a series of SC4 shots into a sci-fi street battle. Dierapyámuk Myon 2 is filled with models of ships and shuttles and planets and stars. Leech10 does a fantastic job in utilizing this skill, adding another unique feature to the CJ. This picture is epic. Nothing more needs to be said. Suggestions There is a lack of SC4 content in this CJ, which pushes the SC4 aspect of the CJ out of the light a bit. Some of the middle and later updates are too focused on story development (which isn’t bad), with only one or two SC4 pictures. Conclusion Dierapyámuk Myon 2 is a thrilling sci-fi story CJ. If you’re interested in reading a CJ that doesn’t follow the “standard” format, check out Dierapyámuk Myon 2. Just keep in mind, there is a good amount of reading to do, because the CJ is based around the story. You don’t have to be a hardcore sci-fi fan to enjoy Le

    Ok, this is my second review. Sorry about the huge text. I will fix that in my next review. The Republic of Ryukyu skyliner22 Ryukyu is a booming Asian nation rich with history. skyliner22 does a magnificent job of capturing the bustle of a growing nation with his exciting pictures and thorough descriptions. Ryukyu is also a member of the popular Adrian Union. skyliner’s CJ starts with the history of the nation, complete with convenient pictures of the area over time. Ryukyu, like much of Asia, has changed dramatically. Ryukyu began as a small kingdom, but after being conquered by Japan, it was ravaged by war and destruction. Now, however, it is growing into a busy and wealthy nation. There’s a noteworthy mosaic on the first page in which skyliner takes a single structure and, in one mosaic, manages to contrast an old black-and-white image with a modern one. Yes, it was that awesome. I’ll let you find it for yourself though. This is a picture of Ryukyu from skyliner’s first update, showing the beautiful Shuri Castle. The BATs used in this CJ are well chosen and fit the theme well. This is the heart of Naha, a prominent city in Ryukyu. One of the things to note in this CJ is that most of the downtown shots are night shots as well. skyliner does a good job of showing the energy of his cities with these kinds of pictures. Moving away from the bustle of the big city, we come upon an amusement park update. The layout is great and skyliner is able to make it look very busy and colorful. This picture just stood out to me. I just love it for some reason.

    I had to learn that the hard way, Twiggy. So many edits. But eventually it all worked out.

    Ok guys, this is my first CJ Review. I hope to receive some suggestions for this. Julianopolis jugioh1012 Julianopolis is a tropical CJ by jugioh1012 in which he plays with different techniques and ideas. Upon entering, the reader quickly notices the Latin theme. Julianopolis is covered by rainforests and tons of trees, a real treat for the eyes. Many of the buildings are Maxis, but jugioh uses colorful houses and shops in his cities to bring life to his creation. He also throws in a few touches with Photoshop, giving the reader vibrant images in every update. The BATs chosen by jugioh embrace Hispanic culture, giving the CJ a tropical feeling. The photoshopping is well done, even if a few of the pictures are a bit too bright for me. jugioh uses several different color themes for the text in his images. The colorful photoshopping adds to the images and makes every update unique. He even tackles rainy GIFs a couple of times. Photoshop is just so much fun, isn't it? You’ll notice that jugioh also uses Photoshop to make massive one-way avenues. His roads are also supplemented by loads of taxis and traffic, only adding to the activity the reader senses in his city. This picture is from the CJ’s very first update (If you can’t find it, look for page 1 and post 1). This picture is one of my favorites. I'll let it speak for itself. Just to Sum it All Up Julianopolis is colorful and lively. The CJ is rather small, but it's fun. Not only is Julianopolis a CJ; it is a place where jugioh displays several tropical-themed pic
