You absolutely have it right on, these are the most realistic yet futuristic buildings I've seen, I would love to see skylines years from now designed by you.

Joint push/pull? Does not compute.

I want to learn how you did that spine shape. I try the follow me tool but that doesn't work.

EDIT: Oh its a plugin! Nevermind.

The black building next to the museum is really cool. Love how vertical it looks even though it's not that high.

You remind me of when i was your age, I loved eveything futuristic.

The Transformers craze was in round 1 for me.
Also 'Voltron'-aka Beast King GoLion - The original modular fighter. Which is ripped off by Power rangers etc these days.

Awesome job! Although I feel like the city needs more balance. I'm not sure what I mean by that, it just feels like it... But that monorail is amazing. Reminds me of my old monorail for La Corte. Damn, I miss making silly cities with buildings I like. All the cities now are trying to be more realistic than the other. I should make remake some of my old designs for the cities I'm working on.

ANYWAYS! Great job! I hope you're having fun making this city!
