city challenge

ok i finally got around to the the challenge between me and the mayan to build a big freakin city

color coded so i can tell what goes where

the rules are:


a near future city textured or untextured (due to time limit) with AT LEAST 1 building that is proposed for a city in you country but not started yet

max poly count 1,000,000

at least 15 city blocks

ghetto,downtown,industrial and, rich area

i changed the poly count to 10 mil cause my warehouses are 100,000 each

heres what i got so far:user added image
