Bad, still not even finished with outdoor city tiles. However if you want to give it a shot, go for it. Just use the tile set up.
I'm at a loss for what other types of buildings to add and if I wan't too keep the generic looking background buildings the way they are.

I updated the car sprites on Chris2balls's tileset, I think the sewer/hole he did looked good as is, made a fire hydrant, and redid the Alley Gator/Crookodile sprite.(thanks Sevenstich for the idea)
Finally is there any type of tile laying program for making conceptual maps? I could use rpg maker but was wondering if there's any good alternative. Right now I doing it piece by piece and that takes me a lot longer than it should. (I usually make mistakes with on pixle and the whole thing ends up being off set)

Doc I took your advice.
I used VX though I'm not sure if I will use it for making the game. It's not very 8bit friendly with all the semitransparent tiles. I would have to find a way to remove it.

Note I added the hydrants and cars in Paint.
Also army enemies, I added changes to a few of them.

Cool stuff.
VX is really cool, but like you said it has some features that make 8bit chipsets look a little off for some reason. The thing with RPGM vx is that it's really cool for adding custom scripts, and making the game completely non-stock. What I like about RPGm 2k3 is that it's a lot better with 16 bit or 8bit graphics, but it lacks in scripting ability and all of the new features in VX. It's your choice, really ( and I can help with either, years of experience with RPGM's )
also I did this thing

Sounds good. Imo it sounds like it could be more of a villains hideout theme, based in an arcade or old factory.
I was fooling around and trying to update my mugshot design.

I know VX uses a much larger mugshot image however, so i'll need to either resize or redo the old ones.

The green characters

Been busy again.
But good news, figured out a way to not re-size the sprites by instead putting a border around the characters mugshot.
Now the question is should I have a default border or one for every unique character?

Now the question is should I have a default border or one for every unique character?
I feel like having one general border for everything would eventually get bland while having an individual border for every unique character would be a bit much (unless you go the way of recolouring the border, and even then...) though it sounds cool in theory
RE: TSRPG [Sprites/Ideas/Storyboard] - E-Man - 08-06-2014
Regarding the borders, my suggestion is to use one style for the playable characters, another style for the NPCs, and one more for the villains.
