Ok first let me sorry it took so long to post anything here - I know you all have been on pins and needles waiting for some pics. Well here they are we will start off with a region shot of where I am playing

Then we will take a quick look around the Farming community of Westfield Bends - this next shot is why this town is called Westfield bends

although a small town population of maybe 5,000 it does have a highway running through it.

Great shots, Citynut. I can see why Westfield Bends is so called. Is that your hospital in the last picture?

Amazing!!  I love this....  I have been waiting so long for you to show pics of playing this map.  The terrain and water mods are absolutely stunning :satisfied: .  Awesome choice.

The use of the bend in that river is not how I expected it to turn out when I made that area.  But none the less ideas are endless. &idea  I really like how you did the original layout.  It will be awesome to see what you come up with when you get out to the lake!  I cant wait.....  Hurry, hurry!  :D

I love it!  &apls

I, too have vested interest in the development of this map.

So far: stunning work. Your terrain/water mods are speaking very loudly to the quality of the pictures. Also looking forward to seeing some of work on the map, specifically the Newman Mining Corp.

At any rate, I'm sure that people have heard enough babbling from me regarding this map. Congrats for taking this project on!! I'm real glad you are the one doing the CJ, makes my 6 months worth of work seem worth it! I don't know if you'll ever finish developing the map, but I hope you do.

See you next update!

This looks like a rural setting in Illinois or Ohio.  Lots of farms with a few residences in small groups. 
What water mod are you using.   You may have answered this and I missed it but the blotchy water
looks scummy.   &mmm  Other than that, it's great.   I'm a huge fan of Newman stuff so am looking
forward to more pics.

That blotchy water is from the Italia mod's effect on shallow water ... I am not sure that it has much to do with the Brigantine MOD per se ... I might be wrong but my shallow waters looks the same.

This is a really wonderful start Citynut! I love the mix of farms and rural suburbia. It looks brilliant! :thumbsup:
