Looks like you've done a good job capturing the war, Alex!

I'm awaiting how you rebuild Warsaw, and I hope this will bring about the dawn of your pictures in color, because after seeing some of your work in color over in the Picture Competition, I must say that I'm very impressed, my friend!

Either way, though, I'll be back to see what's happening next here in Warsaw!

Take care,

Dustin

Yes, even though war is bad, those are fantastic effects in those pics. Wow!!  &apls &apls &apls I may need to start using photoediting software in some of my pictures.

I have a feeling that Warsaw will come back much stronger in the coming years  ;D

Hi Alex,

I missed a few updates - sorry about that.

And seeing the "before, during and after" updates altogether makes a BIG impact.  The city WAS looking good, and whilst the grainy black and white means you can't see much in the way of detail, you can certainly see your city building skills for sure.

And your explosions captured the destruction well.

So, what happens now.  I know i'm not the only one looking forward to the re-build.

Update 15


Name of Update = Warsaw is Liberated (1)
Location = Warsaw District.
Date = 1945
Population = 400,000



On 17th January 1945, the Red Army entered the deserted ruins of Warsaw and reconstruction of the city began almost immediately. Along the main roads and routes, historic buildings were rebuilt from scratch – a remarkable achievement by any standards.









Comments always appreciated! :D

Hey Alex, I like the update.  Great construction lots there.  Did you custom lot them yourself?

And in pic one - where did you get those portakabins?  I was looking for something like that just the other day to use.

Funny to think that from this rubble there will emerge a football team that will enter an international tournament one day ;)

Oh, and I hope they build a piccalilli factory to feed the people of Warsaw!

take care,

Paul

rhythmandjays

Let the rebuilding commence!

Great update  ;D

Nice work! Your depiction of the postwar destruction is spot-on. When I went to Warsaw a few years back, I was amazed by the quality of the restoration work - the character of the town definitely shines through!  :thumbsup:

The post-war Warsaw looks amazing, Alex. You've captured it beautifully.

And it looks like you're getting very close to being promoted to Best Sellers here! You're doing great, my friend!

Dustin

CasperVg

Nice, and congrats to be almost getting into the best sellers!
