Austrium Republic - central Europe country

[robercik]

Welcome to my first MD, here at SC4Devotion!
I have been inactive in playing "SimCity" for quite a long time but I've decided to try once again.

This time I'll present a fictionall, central-europe country called Austrium. It's name is simillar to the real - world country, Austria, on purpose. That's because I really enjoy being in Austria (although I'm from Poland) and because my MD will be stylized a little on Austria's landscape.

As you can see on the map above, Austrium is located in central Europe, bordering such countries like Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, Switzerland and Germany.

Enough writing, let's start with some in-game content:

Update 1: Introducing Sillian Valley

This is the region which I intend to work with for a couple of days. I hope you will enjoy watching as it develops with me!:)

As for now I don't have much done, but I have something to share with you guys.

An overview of the city tile where the main city (Sillian) will be located:


A closer view of characteristic elements of transporttation network:


And for closing a little animation showing how I have developed the 'old stone bridge' area:



here is a link in case the animation doesn't work : http://img237.imageshack.us/i/oldbridgeevolutionanimt.gif/

That would be all for the beginning. I'll post something new soon..

Thanks for watching,

Awesome start Rob. 
That animation is very impressive.
And you had better be good, especially with your rail lines if Bernhard (Nardo69) says he is going to be watching you.

I like the region very much, and it fits well with the geographic area you choosed (a nice one btw..   ). The main city starts well, nice work with the different transportation systems.

Update 2: developing the "valley gate" area


At the beginning I want to say sorry for the long delay.. I promised to make an update "soon" and today 20 days have passed actually:), but here it is now:

The "valey gate" is the area where the mountains "open" and the valley begins (see the map-like picture at the top of this page for better understanding). The part I have focused on today is located at the beginning of the Sillian city, near the river.

general overview:


several mosaics:









And some close-ups:







And another animation for ending:D:




I hope you enjoyed this update:)

thanks for watching,

Rob, oh my god ! The last animation is really fantastic my friend, excellent work !

Your detailing level is really unbelievable ! In the case of the trees, that is good, and also for some other details like the road in work, the flora around the river and everything near and in the farms. great custom lotting too my friend, I must say that this little café and gas station is a great touch, also as the wind power plant.

Looking forward for more !
Arthur.

[Battlecat]

No apologies necessary!  You've done a gorgeous job putting all this stuff together.  It all looks fantastic!  The roadwork on the highway is a particularly appealing detail!

That's just the first thing that came to my mind. This is an absolutely wonderful MD you've started here Rob. As Battlecat said, there is no apologies necessary for the wait. The huge amount of detail you have put into completing the area is wonderful. I'm a detailer as well, so I really do enjoy this. I also spot a lot of custom lotting in the area. It is just absolutely wonderful.
