So this thread is for those things you can custom make that maybe you don't want to open a whole 'nother thread to showcase. These can be things like golf courses, universities, parks, plazas, beaches...just whatever you feel you want to show but may not merit creating its own thread for. So to start off:
Fountain Hills Country Club:

Feel free to post whatever custom modular creations you want, and if it seems that a lot of people are posting the same thing, then feel free to start a new thread specifically for it.
Looks really great, Masochist!
Great idea Masochist. And a great Golfclub to :thumbsup:
Nice start man :thumbsup:

Just a pic I had lying around, of my modular university set (not changed much since this pic was taken).

very nice work you guys
Really nice work on both the golf course and the university guys.
The obvious effort that went into building those paid off.
Great idea for a thread too!
Very great university, DT!
Very nice, DT! I was really hoping to see your university again! I'm still kinda in the process of making that modular university I asked you about long ago (just have to mod it all now...), but the holidays are taking all the time away. Still, seeing what you've created with a custom university set makes me want to work on it, because I want to be able to do that! Nice job!
Very nice work guys &apls I think i'll add some of my creations soon
Nice one folks &apls &apls
very impressed I am :thumbsup:
great idea for a thread too masochist ;D
Wonderful University DT! :thumbsup:
that university is awesome DT.
Great thread.
Wish I had some custom build stuff but I don't have any.
I love that golf course and the university too.
Let me refrase this. I worked a bit with the modular Zoo.
Here are some examples:

Wow, nice zoo! I forgot that had a modular set, as well (from Jeronij, no less!). The stream set and the aquarium are used very well in conjunction with it. I think it shows great skill to be able to mix different things from different sets and be able to create something as good looking as your zoo. Nice work!
Falling of my chair Nik Nik. I can't imagine the time yuo have spent doing those amazing layouts

I thought I'd post a couple of pictures of a project I did some time ago and of which I'm somewhat proud of. The reason I post them on this thread instead of the railroad picture thread (or even the railroad junction thread) is that I consider this to be more of a huge modular creation than a railroad. Besides, as a railroad enthusiast, I'm pretty sure I'll cook up quite a few pictures of my railroads for those threads at some point.
But enough blabbering, on with the pictures:

This is the Hauptbrucke classification yard, one of two big classification yards that handle the vast amount of freight transported to and from the adjancent main port of the region of Reichenburg.

Hauptbrucke CY is a hump yard, with two humps handling the East- and Westbound traffic. Here you can see some diesel switchers moving cargo cars to be sorted. In the picture is also the vehicle bridge spanning across the yard (fully functional, something I'm particularly fond of).
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg247.imageshack.us%2Fimg247%2F447%2Fmi07071503hauptbruckecleq7.jpg&hash=00598d305436b4127b6fd05007fbccde553a9ead)
Locomotive and car maintenance is also provided in the yard's facilities. Hauptbrucke CY also handles the outbound cargo of local industries, so several storage and loading areas are required.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg247.imageshack.us%2Fimg247%2F9759%2Fmi07071504hauptbruckeclbd6.jpg&hash=d42ab332b207ae2b7cf373d3d898217cbf186e55)
The yard is quite massive, as it spans over the city borders. I'd show pictures of the "other side", but things are not yet complete there. There will be a log yard, once I find/create some decent log car/log props.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg72.imageshack.us%2Fimg72%2F967%2Fmi07071505hauptbruckeclgn0.jpg&hash=810da18593be2816c8cc1ebea4d6e50a313c66bf)
Even though the apartments in the upper right corner of this pic are low wealth, I wouldn't mind living there just for the view...
So, that was the Hauptbrucke CY. Hope you liked what proved to be a monster of over a dozen of huge (and therefore, due to SC4 engine, utterly crime-ridden) custom lots.

Here's my first attempt at a modular university. I've highlighted university-owned property to make them easier to pick out:

Casterbridge University lies just outside of the city center of Casterbridge (off the upper left corner of the pic) in the historic, affluent district of Kingston. It was established in the late eighteenth century as a series of brick buildings around a central quadrangle, called "The Diamond" due to the shape of its central pond. As the university expanded, it followed the mid-twentieth century fashion for large, modernist academic buildings and open spaces, obliterating entire blocks of historic urban fabric. More recent expansion has been more sensitive, as the university has been buying and restoring existing 18th century houses around its perimeter for use as office and classroom space.
Gusterfell, I really like how well you're university is integrated into the city. Defintely flows well with the city that wraps the university.
To all the others, great work with the different modular sets. I wish I had half the talent of y'all!
Also like the work on that university there on your city, Gusterfell!! Nice work! :thumbsup:
That looks really nice. Modular university, is that what you call this kind of set-up. I should try that sometime :)
Grave digging! :P
Here's what I've done, the port is all modular and the raised canals at the top.
