Overhead Street Grid

Looking East Shot

Random Shots (Field of View tool was used in most on the shots)

CGII · #**203** Posted **Aug 5, 2006, 7:22 PM**

Did you finally figure out how to change field of view for those last three or are those Photoshops too?

Anyways, more great work.

Yes, there will be more updates, it's just that I've about doubled the size of the street grid for downtown and I won't put up another update until I have most of it filled in. It shouldn't be as long, though, because it will be made of larger buildings rather than hundreds of little browntsones.

Sweet, is that a ship I see?

Staunton, City of Spires?

Patrick · #**206** Posted **Aug 6, 2006, 1:19 AM**

CGII - I used Field of view
Boris550 - yes it is!

You told me to animate the city a little bit, so I added a huge oil tanker in the port.
Foxmtbr- thanks!

CGII · #**209** Posted **Aug 6, 2006, 4:58 PM**

That ballpark is very nice. How are you changing the field of view?

mthq · #**210** Posted **Aug 7, 2006, 1:55 AM**

There is a harbor in front of Jefferson Heights (or there will be) and usually they dont park Oil Tankers in the Jefferson Harbor, they park them in Newport Harbor (not in the model YET) There was a "ship problem" so they docked it there.

As if Staunton's City Hall didnt have enough complaints. lol

Hmm havent thought of that yet, I'm just using those Newspaper Titles to make intresting instead of saying: I made a new Stadium.

Jefferson Public Housing Crime Levels Soar
Drug Problems, Gang Problems, Violence, you name it
No Suprise Staunton voted #1 Most Dangerous City in the US, again, Detroit Residences baffeled.

In Jefferson Heights I've added more Public Housing, the first of many Public Housing Projects in Jefferson. The "Projects" are one of Staunton's most criminal spots. The Towers where built between 1963 - 1970.

Forcast calls for mostly dark skies (again)
Overcast, Rain, it never ends!
Dont Worry the sun will come out soon!

^hmm no replys well here is Panoramic of Staunton Square.

No Perspective shots

Panorama of Callahan Square This shows how big the GalvistonEnterprises Tower is.

More nonperspective shots, I love these

foxmtbr · #**214** Posted **Aug 8, 2006, 6:12 AM**

Got to love the freeway sign with grafitti on it! Beautiful shots.

Boris2k7 · #**215** Posted **Aug 8, 2006, 6:45 AM**

Man, I just love all of the work on the signs. Especially that one with the guy looking up at the Galviston Enterprises tower.

Patrick · #**216** Posted **Aug 8, 2006, 8:29 AM**

Thanks!! Yeah I love that billboard, oops I forgot JC Summit and Galviston Enterprises have the same motto "rise to the top"

Foxmtbr See that Galviston Enterprises Sign in the picture with the freeway sign? Well all those little words are all Galviston Enterprises Headquarters Locations, I forgot to tell you it has Sun City on it, so you can add a Galviston Enterprises Regional Headquarters in Sun City if you'd like

Boris550 I made that sign before you created your city, Galviston Enterprises can also have a Regional Headquarters in Merton, if you'd like

Just dont make it taller than Stauntons

You never know what you can do when your bored...

Heres another sign I havent shown yet. Isnt it just exciting!

(I actually measured those distances on GoogleEarth

)

foxmtbr · #**217** Posted **Aug 8, 2006, 8:42 AM**

Wow!! Nice job!

I'll go add a billboard to my city.

Boris2k7 · #**218** Posted **Aug 8, 2006, 9:10 AM**

Dear lord... you really do get stuff done when you are bored!

Hmmm... let's see here. According to your 'Emporis Page' Galviston Enterprises comes up to 1067 feet or 325 meters.

Seeing as though the tallest current building in Merton is 300 meters, there shouldn't be any problems there. In fact I have a respectable 181 meter tower right in the heart of downtown Merton for the regional HQ.

Consider the leases signed!

foxmtbr · #**219** Posted **Aug 8, 2006, 9:51 AM**

The West Coast headquarters has officially opened! More info on my thread... (I made a newspaper article

)

Patrick · #**220** Posted **Aug 8, 2006, 5:56 PM**

Cool!

logos I've added some building logos to the tops of some buildings.
