Welcome to page 2!

Wonderful new pictures, amapper! Great work on that airport! Also the others are great!

Nice update there amapper.

I like the hotel with tennis park - look good together and I can imagine that set up near an airport like London Gatwick.

As for the airport - I don't remember ever seeing a RL airport with runways that cross but I know many MD'ers do this.  Maybe our airports in the UK are small and uncomplicated but do US airports have runways that cross? (flying to Las Vegas next month so need to know whether to keep my eyes closed on landing  ).  I'll need to put an airport in my MD soon - onlyhave Maxis airport so far.  Where did you get your airport stuff?  I know there are a few packs out there, so interested to hear your views on the pros and cons of the set you use - thanks.

Look forward to next update.

bat - Thanks, glad you are enjoying the MD so far.
paroch - Here is a list of the airport packs and lots I use.

I love the industrial area.  Looks so good, realistic, great work.  And in the next update the airport look great as well.  I can't wait until everything is filled in.

Beautiful work!  There's a lot of good stuff (landscape, towns, airports) that give your MD a LOT of potential.  I'll be tuning in.

rooker1 - Thanks for the visit. The first development is taking shape with more to follow. As the city/county grows there will be a major frieght terminal and an aircraft maintenance facility.
meinhosen - Thank you. One of the most important things that needs to be done is to add more residential areas to increase growth. That will enable larger scale things to happen. Also in the cards: one or two legs of interstate highways.

Update 3:

Awesome shots of your small town and airport.  I really like the industrial sector as well.  I can't wait to see how you fill in the areas between each of these sectors.

The industrial areas in this MD are no short of amazing.  I really envy your skill and attention to detail in the airport area.

rooker1 - Glad you are enjoying the MD. The airport will continue to expand as the region grows.
pickled_pig - I hope the airport will get a lot more detailed and complex as it grows.

Excellent job, amapper! Your residential areas look fantastic, and I love the airport from the last update! I'll be looking forward to more!

A great looking update 3 & 4! Wonderful picture of your city!

[rooker1]

Fantastic update.  I really like the residential area, very nice looking.  I also like the way you did the bridges over the highway.  That's how I do them, when ever I can.  I think it's more realistic.

Nice updates there.

Your region is coming along very nicely. 

I think there is a feeling of space about the place that gives a nice feel.

In the Logistics and Distribution Centre, I like the building that is near the top - orange brick walls with a blue zig-zag roof.  Do you know what it is called and where I can download it.  I could do with that one - thanks.

I lok forward to more.

Very realistic, goood job. Keep up the good work...!

[nedalezz]

Great couple of updates, amapper. The airport is one of the most realistic I've seen, and I loved the overview shot of the city.

[amapper]

Trying a paper for the MD. The format may change a little at first so
bear with me.

[thundercrack83]

Love the newspaper, amapper! Very good job with the graphics! Keep up the good work!

[Asimov]

That looks like a peaceful and well planned place to live, well done, looking forward to more 

[nedalezz]

I liked the newspaper format. With the opening of the new airport, surely commerce will pick up a bit in the region.
