Neat. But...it looks more familiar, so you can see the flaws (or at 
least differences from any city on Earth) more easily. The first one 
just looked alien or super-futuristic...familiar enough to be recognized 
as a city, but so different that any flaws weren't perceived as 
such...at least by me. This...well, the roofs look funny. It looks much 
like a present-day city, but there should be objects on the roofs, 
raised portions near the edges, varying textures...it didn't look odd 
for the first one, but it looks odd here.

Still...very, very impressive effect, especially given the tiny amount 
of code used. Nice sky...I like the birds, too.
