Really good screenshots. It's hard to select just one...

Really hard to select one, indeed. Two people coming up with long bendydildo trains, one with a gigantic freighter and container port (hey ! where can I found that cranes ?), one with a hydroelectric dam (dagnappit where can I found that !!?!), one with a true cable stayed bridge...

Unfortunately you can't.
But I am happy that you like it.
It is a work in progress. What you see is just a small part of the project that was posted elsewhere to reference a discussion.
The final product is several months away and will be even more epic than what you see.

How exactly did you do that one? Is it actually possible to make sprites that large, or was it editing?
I'm guessing the latter. Either way, this degree of monumentality is refreshing, you don't see huge stuff like that in screenshots often.
By the way, your entry would have been a thousand times better if you had put the bridge over a city instead. It looks a bit empty with all the water

Ok I answer like I should have done in the first place

Only thing whats not real in my shot is the large ship (conteiners on it are real).

It's actually the top-secret NightGFX+Fog NewGRF. Oh, wait, it's not secret now. SHOOT!

Sorry to say it was edited. It's just two bridges joined together, I have no idea if it is possible to create a working version in game. Maybe my next screenshot I will try something big in a city but it depends on the theme.

All very epic screenshots
They are all excellent, but then ISA made that unique foggy night screenshot, which I voted for

The old world charm from Kotssmurf with its beautiful tramways and station placement is IMO more epic than the rest.

Thank You fellows! For now I calculate that 2 votes per hour . That was the time what it took to make it... probably more but I dont calculate some short pixeling here and there, of course the harbor sprites what I hope to release soon, its releasable, but the coder probably is the main concern

My vote went to Wally

While we have a runaway winner at the moment, there are still two days left in the voting! If you haven't voted yet, there is still time. Who knows, perhaps our current tie for second place will make a break and somebody can challenge for the win!

As an added bonus, try to include a photo of the real world location you're showing.
This could have as much potential for creative release as our last contest! So, have fun, please PM me with any questions, and let's see some awesome screenshots!
