Atrubia - Update 71: A Few Progress Pics

[Tomas Neto]

Very nice preview!!! 

Happy holidays to you!!!

That rough looks downright dangerous...might break a wrist or two 

Interesting idea with the custom golf course. For the fairways or greens I would think that simple plopped grass tiles would work best, blended in with mayor mode flora around the edges to create more gentle curves. As is, your fairways look kind of...bushy    The bunkers look awesome and at least from this height look to have some depth or rather the illusion there of. The tree line is awesome and the ponds are well placed. I'm curious, did you make a full 18 hole course?

Otherwise, good luck with your research paper!

Yaay! You're back! Awesome update! 

[canyonjumper]

Looking great, can't wait for more!

               Your friend,

Wow!  I might have had the idea of doing golf courses that way... but it never really clicked.  Now that I've seen it done...    Thanks for the inspiration!   

[rooker1]

 Hmmmm, not sure how I missed your last update.
That is an ingenious way to make a golf course!!

Update 67 - Time for Summer



WC_EEND: Thanks, wow, its been like I don't know, about 6 months since the last update so this I guess is well overdue.

peter007: Hopefully a quite long story.

emgmod: Yeah, an old model of a spruce goose. Teehee. Hope you enjoy the next update!

Battlecat: Thanks, I think I've improved them from the last update. Hope you guys do like them.

FrankU: Thanks, hope you will continue to enjoy it.

cubby420: Hopefully this next update won't be the last for quite a while.

noahclem: Thanks, I hope to improve the RES areas in these next few updates.

Thomas Neto: Thanks a lot. Those are only the first 3 holes. 15 more to go!

cubby420 (2): Yeah, I've got an idea floating around in my head on how to improve it so I might implement it to make the rough and stuff more realistic.

Ricky112233: Hopefully not the last.

canyonjumper: Thanks!

sumwonyuno: It certainly looks better than the maxis ones I think.

rooker1: Thanks quite a lot!

                                                                                                                                                         

Hey guys, I know I really haven't been too active lately but I'm going to try to be more active than posting an update every six months. Hehe. Anyways, onto the vacations....

"Okay, so I'll pick you up in, 5 - 10 minutes?" I said.

"Yeah"

Alright Argo I'll see you in a bit. Bye."

"Bye."

It had been six months since I had done the Air Force Base, since then I had done small projects around the city, including a small highway through the utside of the city to make traffic flow easier, designed a beach in the city, a small cruise ship terminal and improving some of the highways around the islands. But now it was time for a vacation back to the mainland.

"Alright, are you ready to go?"

"Yeah."

"Hey thanks for giving me a lift." said Argo "Even though were not even on the same flight."

"Nah its fine, so you're heading to Meriah right?"

"Yes, well, Atalta, its sister city, more of a resort town."

"Very cool." I said.

"Yeah, and you?"

"I'm heading to Atrubia city for my vacation and Iliad a bit too. I'm flying into Atrubia International, the world's smallest International airport. It has 2 runways and the smallest plane they service is a 767."

"Wow, thats pretty serious."

"Yeah, The place is backed up as McDonald's toilet."

"Hehe. Oh look we're here. Well, I see you in two weeks." Argo said.

"Yep, later!"



I left the house, and picked up Argo.



We got to the terminal and parted our seperate ways.



While Argo boarded a United Airways Flight, I boarded a Royal Jet flight bound for the capitol.





We landed at the airport and disembarked from the plane.



The building was one of the longest in Atrubia. Pretty much a half mile from end to end. There is even a bill in the Atrubian congress for expansion, since there is only one terminal currently at the airport.



I exited the terminal and went to a car lot to rent one, the HSR Terminal was not yet finished.







The car they gave me was a beige-ish 1999 Chevrolet Camaro SS. Suitable for the beach I must admit. I quite like these things anyways.

I headed out over the bridge and out the highway.





(sorry for no car in the second pic, I forgot to photoshop it )

Across another bridge was the city of islands, Iliad.





Even a marina was built under the bridges.



By the time I reached the Atrubian - High Suspension bridges it was nightfall.



To be Continued...

[Tomas Neto]

[ricardomiranda]

Welcome back! Great update!

[Reikhardt]

Great update, worth the wait 

[cubby420]

That is one hell of a comeback! Where did you get those fantastic boatyard lots and props?

[vinlabsc3k]

Welcome back KoV Liberty. I like ur last update.
A little question: where did u find the bridge on the right of pic.

[wallasey]

That is one amazing Airport! Wish I could put one together as good as that!

[peter007]

Back again after a very long break?
Amazing quality just like before!

[RickD]

I'm glad to see a new update. The picture with the marina and the bridges is pretty impressive.

[apeguy]

It's awesome to see this MD back in action! Nice work with the airport, and the night shots are pretty good too.


I also used your idea of using MMPs to make a golf course for my city, so thanks for the inspiration for that.

Update 68 - Meanwhile...



Cyclone: Thanks.

marsh: I'm doing more cars between now and the next update, for now, a couple more Hummers, lol.

Thomas: Thanks!

Ricardo: Thankyou.

Reikhardt: I would hope so, after six months, its overdue.

cubby: Umm, Pegasus, Boatyard at Simtropolis, search his name, and CSX Boat props on the LEX.

Vinlab: Thankyou Vinlab.

Wallasey: And there are more on the way where that came from!

Peter: It would appear so, and I'm here to stay!

RickD: Thanks, it took quite a lot of LOTting and careful planning.

Apeguy: Thanks, I'm glad its back too, you can use the idea, I guess I'm the first guy to really attempt to make a full 18 holes golf course. Its definatey a challenge.

                                                                                                                                                         

Also, an updated history of Atrubia.

Meanwhile, across Atrubia, Argo heads to his rental home...

"Welcome to Meriah City, please stay seated until the pilot has turned off the fasten seatbelt sign. We thankyou for flying US Airways, and hope you enjoyed the flight."



Alright, Argo thought, time to get outta here.

He walked through the terminal to the rental counter.

"Car, SUV, Truck, Van, or Convertible?" - said the Agent

"SUV - two weeks." - Argo replied























"Finally! I'm here."

Not sure you guys have ever seen this reworked MCIA (Meriah City Intl. Airport), I'll get a few overviews for the next update. Hope you all enjoyed it this week, see you guys soon!
