Tropical Something III

[hyyyper]

Some of you might remember one of the first tracks I posted on this site. It was certainly no good coaster, but hell it was fun.
The dimensions were ridicoulous, and the number of inversions even more.
The ride, a B&M Looper, was set on an tropical island and raced down the terrain hitting inversion after inversion. Because I couldn't think of a better name, I named it Tropical Something.

Tropical Something II had a similair setting and tons of inversions. Unfortunately, it was lost/delete/fled.

Now, the jungle island is back and this time a crazy B&M hyper is being build on it. Although the trackwork itself is pretty realistic, the setting won't be.

Lifthill-support colors are subject to change.

That overbank in the 3rd picture looks undersupported...
also, I like the lifthill supports

I like the way you did your lift supports, but I think it would look a bit better if the purple went on for a few more structures, or transition over a few beams. Right now it just looks a little weird. I have to say both color combos look great though, and really go with the environment and theme.

I agree with Vid. You should move the others over a tad and have another set of poles, then it will be perfect.

I absolutely love the way it looks. That first turn is beastly, the colors are hot, and the island is beautiful. I just hope it rides well...

Yeah, there are a few section of track that look iffy. The ride itself is coming along beautifully though. And I agree with the others, the transition into that overbank turnaround needs another support structure.

New update, with:

-Station
-Storage building
-Overbank supports

and I need your input, I can't decide on the color of lifthill supports

take a look and tell me what looks best.

Maroon or light blue. Do NOT use that pink haha

The bottom right picture is easily the best.

Southeast quadrant is beest.

I like the light blue. It goes well with the theme.

Maybe try navy blue lift supports? If not then the bottom right.

If you're going for a stand out color that goes with the tropical theming I'd use the bright orange ones. But thats just my opinion.
