Has it been that long? Seems like only a few moments to me. That freeway pile-up sounds bad, but I think that idiot in the station wagon sitting if front of a train might cause more damage. Keep up the eerily awesome fog effects.

Wow your city is magnifical and superb 
Love the genral view 
And the best is it's realistic

Hey porter66083, I love your photo editing, it's quite proffesional, especially the first picture showing the car crash on the highway - it looks very dramatic. I love the BATs in your city, including the trees - they seem to keep your city alive!
I bet it would be lovely living in Xentione as almost every house has a swimming pool! Cant wait to see more of your work.

Nice new chapter 3 there!

Looking forward to the next...

Interesting story so far. 

[Zaphod]

Poor guy.

So he's been dragged across the world by his politician father, put into a private boarding school(which we know are evil, for instance Emperor Hirohito attended a military academy in El Paso, TX). Naturally he is being tracked too. Surely he'll learn to ditch the phone and stop by a ghetto prepaid phone store on his way home...

Hopefully you can squeeze in another update, we need story journals...

[threestooges]

The story is shaping up nicely so far (I hope the next installment comes soon) and Xentoine is a remarkably bright and pleasant looking city compared to the picture being painted thus far in the story. It was an abrupt change when those pics hit. Good work on the story and the pics. Looking forward to more.

Just wanted to share some things with everyone....

Today I recieved an email from Youtube that UMG thought it to be ok to start using my Youtube videos as a place to cram full of advertisements since I used a 15 second music clip by one of their artists. Due to this, I don't really feel like making them money for advertising and as such have now pulled all videos off the site. If anyone wants to see them, let me know, and I'll email you a copy of the video.

Also, I'll be releasing an update later this week or so, so stay tuned!

Sorry to hear you've pulled your videos, but I can understand the reasoning. I'm looking forward to the update though when you're ready for it.

Interesting story line you have here. I've thought of adding some text to my diary but I do not have the ability with words you and others have. I like the last picture on page one a lot. Very nice work there.

Talk about ultimate writers block. Seeing as I simply can't get this chapter to come out right at all, it looks like I'm not going to be updating Amestria for quite a while.

But.........

This gives me a chance to roll out a new MD (yes, I know, not allowed to have more than 1 MD, I'll close this one down). I'm in the works of doing something different and I want the opinion of all of you out there about my next project.

Tell me what you want to see and read. I want you all to give me an idea of what you'd like to read. A disaster? Romance? Comedy? Lots of explosions and war? A superhero flick even? Also, this is going to be a sort of choose your own adventure type of MD. I want you, the readers, to take the story where you want.

To help out, I have a city (its almost done cooking on the back burner) and even a fun new picture for you all to think on.

ooo anther Classic by Jacob and this time interactive hmm now this could be very well a classic indeed!!! I for one would love to go with a Hancock style    aka superhero as it seems this summer is hot with them!!!

Nice MD, porter. I like the clouds in the newest shot.

[Shadow Assassin]

A little "short" of ideas, are we?

Heheh. Like the city shot there...

Give comedy a try.

[thundercrack83]

What about more of a character study? Don't focus so much on the plot as how the characters interact with each other and with the city that you're showcasing. Within that you, could weave almost anything--comedy, romance, even disasters and/or war. Just an idea.

[threestooges]

Sorry to hear writer's block has set in, but I hope that you'll continue the story at some point (I don't think it would be bad to intersperse it among the pages here) but to answer your question:

A disaster? Romance? Comedy? Lots of explosions and war? A superhero flick even?

The answer is yes.

In all seriousness though, considering the pic you've started with here, I'm sure it can start with something a bit dramatic. A mystery or spy thing perhaps, and I'll second thundercrack's idea too. My creative juices haven't started flowing yet, but I'll think about it, and I'll look forward to seeing what you come up with.

[porter66083]

Thanks for all the replies!

I've decided on a name for the city.... see the picture below and the title. I'm almost done with the first city tile of it (funny thing is that is any of you remember Pine Grove, it was built on the same map ), and I'll be ready to start writing my 'plot' soon.

And now, some nice eye candy to tide people over...

These two new night shots are looking really beautiful!

And looking forward to TIMBERVALE...
