New city: Cape Otway.

WibblyWobbly · #1 Posted **Jan 21, 2012, 1:05 AM**

Yet another city! I'll try not to give up on this one, and i'm trying to do a very detailed style, but starting small and as the city gets bigger i'll replace buildings and extend and make new ones. I'm excited about this one. I'm not sure about the name though. If possible, could you give me better ideas for names?
Anyway, so far i've only got the town hall. Took me a long time to make.
Here it is:

Here is an overview:

Thankyou.

Good start, regarding the name, well I think its fine, although maybe it should be called it Cape Wibbly.

Haha thanks

Looks good so far, but the sidewalks look very small.

WibblyWobbly · #5 Posted **Jan 21, 2012, 11:03 PM**

Yeah, I guess they do. They're a meter wide, while the world is ten.

Did i say world???? I meant road!

The detail looks really promising! The city hall looks really beautiful. It looks like the streets and city blocks are not in scale with the building. You should check that.

Keep it up!

Thanks Vellu! But I don't know what you meant by not to scale with the buildings?

It really is dead around here!

That city hall won't now fit in a regular block, but it doesn't look that big that it wouldn't fit a real life city block. What are the dimensions of the blocks?

Well, I gave an update on my Midland City yesterday, but no one ever comments on it.

WibblyWobbly · #11 Posted **Jan 27, 2012, 10:00 PM**

I wonder why it is dead though? School? University?

I'm still on holiday

Flamesrule · #12 Posted **Jan 27, 2012, 10:46 PM**

Yeah, most likely school.

Flamesrule · #13 Posted **Jan 28, 2012, 11:22 PM**

Anything new on this?

WibblyWobbly · #14 Posted **Jan 29, 2012, 12:21 AM**

Yah I'm working on it,though I've been stuck on playing CitiesXL2012 lately

. I've nearly finished a block.( That's really slow isn't it !)

Flamesrule · #15 Posted **Jan 31, 2012, 12:57 AM**

Looks very good!

Though, I'd work more on the street detail.

Looks very promising!

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou!

Im currently building some more buildings on the same block

Remember, quality over quantity.

WibblyWobbly · #18 Posted **Jan 31, 2012, 2:22 AM**

Yeah well although these don't look detailed, they are taking me a very long time! Im trying to do as detailed as possible without getting bored. Anyway, it probably looks less detailed because im not using textures.

Very nice - your skill is already improving / evolving. Keep playing around with different cities and concepts until you hit on the right one - and don't get caught up in the amount of comments, do this for the enjoyment of doing it.

Thanks Dac! I always find yours and Jhowards comments to be the most thoughtful.
