KINGDOM OF NOVA TERRA...
A MONTH OF SURPRISES

To celebrate the choosing of the Kingdom of Nova Terra as an OSITM MD, The Royal House of the KoNT is going to publish as many as 1 pic daily to incentivate tourism in our beautiful Kingdom

Congratulations Alan, and what a nice mountain there my friend.
I'm sure this will be a fantastic month for you in OSITM.
Can't wait the next update,
Arthur.

Alan,

First of all, congratulations of the well deserved award!
I saw your first time a few days ago.I like it very much. Your project to show so many different places on the Earth is really ambitious, but it is performed very well.
I like your pictures - and there are a lot of them!  Maybe some house are a bit repetitive, maybe some sharp edges could be hidden, but it is not important. You are able to show the specific climate of various places, and this is the most important thing.

My most favourite update is Tuscany. Beautiful landscapes, I like the way you composed rolling hills covered by farmfields 
You have a talent to create beautiful landscapes. Your mountains are great, the Great Barrier Reef and Angel Falls are really impressive.
There are not too much people making such things, please continue showing beauties of nature!

And most of all - the joy of CS4 playing is clearly visible on your pictures! So it is a pleasure for your viewers too.

That's a great picture of the nature in the Kingdom of Nova Terra!
Looking forward to the picture(s) for day 2!

I'm pretty sure I've commented here before, but if not, I'm not sure what's kept me from doing so. You have an excellent style to your cities, their layout, the buildings you use, and the effects you add to the pics. I particularly like the cp homes in the last update. They cover the area, yet do not seem repetitive. I also like how the farms seem to creep into the town, and vice versa. Your pic of Angel Falls was really well done too. It is a simple, yet complex picture and the feeling of depth you gave it really makes it shine. Congratulations on OSITM, and I'll look forward to seeing what you have in store. The first image of Sultana National Park looks pretty good.

Simpson: thanks for the comment!
Jmouse: Welcome to Nova Terra! Thanks for stopping by!
art128: Thanks! and also congratulations for your award
Ennedi: Another new-comer! Thanks for those kind words... I slip details sometimes... maybe you could teach me a thing or two!
Bat: Glad you like it... here's the picture
threestooges: You have visited me before, and every visit counts! Thanks for those very kind words, I'm glad you like my work on the game... The fields weren't really in the original Monica Bay plan... but when I went to Region View, the change between fields and houses was a little too drastic... so to smooth it a little, I added those fams. Congratulations on your OSITM award!

DAY 2

Aversa Oil Refinery

[dsrwhat316]

Congrats on your OSITM award, Alan!

I must say I've never seen such a colorful refinery before. It looks quite nice.

I may not comment as much as I'd like, but I do follow your MD with great interest 

~ Dan

[Jmouse]

As a former resident of the Texas Gulf Coast, I've seen many oil refineries and drilling rigs at night. Can't say I've seen a refinery that looks as good as yours, but the image still brings back fond old memories. Looking forward to seeing all the plans you have for Nova Terra unfold in the weeks to come.

Later...
Joan

[bat]

That second picture in your OSITM month is great!

BTW, Congrats for that award...

[alan_vzla]

dsrwhat316: thanks for stopping by! I'm glad you like the refinery
Jmouse: I've seen a lot of refineries too, we have a lot of them down here... and they DO look good at night... but mine beeing that good? I doubt it... anyway thanks for that compliment!
bat: Thanks!

DAY 3

Contrera Military Training Center

[metarvo]

Congratulations on OSITM, Alan!  That refinery at night is absolutely spectacular, and the military training ground is also nicely done.  I anticipate the next OSITM update, Alan.

[kimcar]

The last two pics was excellent , congrats for the OSITM too. keep it up 

[art128]

This picture is awesome Alan, I like your use of tank ! 
Ans also the second day's picture is great too, a lot of industry  !

[threestooges]

I thought the pic you showed was great just for the water and the scenery, then I noticed the caption and military vehicles fording the river. Well done. The details are great, and even the supporting aspects of the picture are well done.

[rooker1]

Alan,

I really like this picture.  It shows some very good imagination.  I also at first missed the vehicles crossing the river.  The sandy shore line is a good effect, it is the paths, right?  And the photoshopping was a perfect touch.  Very well done picture, nothing over the top, but the picture speak volumes.

That's a great picture there! Nice river! Looking forward to more...

I'm looking forward to the next update
