Med Inspirations #52 - Kinbasket Old Mine (2) - April 15

Fantastic picture!!
I love the raised plaza that the buildings are on.....it really gives the illusion that the avenues are sunken.

I agree with rooker! That raised plazas looks awesome - love how it creates the sunken avenue effect.

Awesome work with the sunken TIA trick    Really inspiring city center

The sunken avenue really makes the district look like it was built in the 60' - 70' over a dale, like front de Seine in Paris or laDefense.

It's really nicely ma-

>Tour Montparnasse and Eindhoven buildings

Okay, now I'm really going to look forward to the full update.

Great image.  Nice to see that you are still updating.

Amazing work with the sunken tram-in-avenue. Great lotting and selection of buildings

[Swordmaster]

Wow, stunning railyard. Looks very realistic indeed.

And that teaser is as good as any. Fantastic sunken avenue there.


Cheers

stunning teaser! can't wait to see more.

[ThomasK]

I really had to double-take with that image. There's so much going on, and that tram-in-avenue combined with the raised parks is ingenious. I can't wait for more!

[RickD]

I didn't even realize that it is a raised park and not a sunken avenue.  Anyway, it looks great.

Wait, I'm confused. It's a sunken avenue or a raised park? Anyway, the concept is very futuristic

The avenue is 8m below the building's ground. He also used lots with custom foundations to make it looks like more real.

The concept is not futuristic at all. It started to be made a lot after the WWII.

Little nit picking here but it looks like the walls are made with props, not custom lot foundations. The result is still stunning though!

Good work on lotting!   
As always, your city look like a real city 

[Huston_N7]

You must spend hours on lotting cause it just looks superb! Plus the placement of the buildings seem so carefully planned, it just makes everything look amazing!

Some of you might have noticed it, I add a tutorial in my signature "tips & tricks for LE", but it's in french. For example, I explain how to do that kine of tricks that you saw in the commercial district with the "sunken avenue", and more, 11 tips & tricks so far. If some of you are interested, I could consider to translate it and post it here on Devotion, up to you, just tell me !

Update 42 - French Riviera - Saint Tropez

Here is the first update concerning the French Riviera.
This is not a reproduction of Saint Tropez, but inspired by the town.
Next update probably about the "Tour de france in the Med Alps"
Hope you'll like it

Fantastic work. Nice work with the marinas. I'm also thinking of making some marinas with smaller boats. Maybe also some diagonals. The details underwater and on the streets are also great.

[art128]

Incredible, really incredible!

Though, not sure if it's the water effect you used or the tone you used, but it make your pictures looks like it is a rainy day.

[noahclem]

You do such an amazing job with your marinas, quais, and boat areas in general    The layout of the city itself is also really great and the photoshoping is spot-on as usual. What are all those boat props you use? I haven't been over to your lotting thread in a while but are you considering sharing any of these docks? Everything's fantastic 

[vortext]

Really, really nice. 

The seafloor looks great, as does the city itself of course. 

Also curious about two BATs; first of all the rundown tower and secondly the building next to it. Not the ones from Namspopof but the house with the short, diagonal segment. I haven't seen those before and needless to say, would like to get my hands on them. 

Once again, great update. Though the entire atmosphere does make me want to go on vacation but alas, that won't happen anytime soon.
