Another super update, suplado! I really like this dessert MD.  The sprawling feel is perfect.  I think this is how Las Vegas started.  Will your city have any casinos?

Excellent! I love the clear oasis and the mosque, fantastic job  :thumbsup: nice choice of flora too!

tkirch

Great pictures.  I love the desert MD's as Robin said above too.  THey are just so unique.  To see nothing but desert than bam a city, it looks fantastic.  Keep it up, you have something special going on here.

You especially know what your looking for and it shows in the pictures.   You pick the right buildings for this area, they look like they belong.  I love your lakes too, very much an oasis feel.

Bout time i write a comment too :P

Looks great! love the selection of buildings, they fit right in and the oasis is masterfully done.
Il be back, as that austrian governor of california keeps saying on that old VHS.

Nakar is looking fantastic! Great pictures there! And wonderful residential area (also nice mosaic of it)!

I simply cannot get over how fantastic your work is, my friend! Your pictures are simply stunning! I love the desert feel of Nakar, it's an oasis!

Keep up the good work, my friend!

i was watching a documentary on Dubai and the first thing I tought, Jargeah. Keep up the great work ;)

Ennedi

Jargeah is one of the most interesting MDs I have ever seen  &apls

Only a few people make desert regions and the uniqueness is an important factor here, it is something different from most other MDs.
But there are much more interesting things here:
- Your photo editing skills are very good. Sand and sea colors are in a perfect harmony, the subtle softening adds a lot to your pictures :thumbsup: . The graphic design - picture titles, the Jargeah national emblem - is excellent, I would like to be able to do it as good as you :D
- Your terraforming is very good too, these hills/dunes look very realistic. You use various SC4 tools in a very economical, minimalistic way. A very good example are stones in the oasis pond in the front of the mosque; there are only a few of them &apls It's a sign of a very good artistic taste.
- You are very good city planner too. Your airport is a great example of it. Of course, maybe it is easier to build a completely new city (having a lot of money :D) - both in RL and in SC4. But to do it good a creator should have a really good vision - and you have it.
- A little but important thing: Straight edges of various lots (buildings, parkings, sidewalks and so on) look ugly in most cities. They destroy the organic look of a typical city. But this sand (and this method of city building) is maybe the only place in which these artificial textures are on their right place. You made an advantage from one of the main SC4 disadvantages :D :thumbsup:

You haven't too much various stuff here, but it is rather good than bad in such region ;)
It's a special kind of reality, not for all ;) But I'm sure you will have many fans.

Great work, I will visit you here with pleasure!

I agree with Ennedi on every point.  This is one of my top five favourite MDs to visit.

a small background history of Nakar








... ;D

bat

Congrats on the moving to this section!

And two wonderful new mosaics of your city there! Great work! :thumbsup:

thundercrack83

Your mosaics are stunning, and I love the backstory that goes along with them. I'll be looking forward to seeing more, my friend!

Yoman

Its awesome to look at the story of Nakar that is represented in your two different mosaics. You can see how it expanded outwards than upwards, and your backstory just adds to it.

And your second mosaic is only from 2001, before the period of extreme growth in places like Dubai.
