So far, I've got most of the track work done, fearturing a pretzel twist, a couple of floater hills, some ground-hugging helixes, and my brand new element, which I call the "Space roll".

It's basically a variation on something I was planning to do in the jazzland contest. It starts off like an ordinary overbank leading out of a helix, but instead of twisting back down, it continues over and rolls out into another helix. You can see a screenshot of it here and here.

All that's left to do now is a return trip to the station, which will probably include a heartline roll, another helix and a hill. The name/ theme are still being finalized, as is the colour scheme. That's all coming next week. [:D]

^ That's cause I just deleted them.

Here are the latest screenshots. I wasn't able to do the helix and heartline roll I wanted to finish off with, I just didn't have space for that and a brake run that didn't slam with about 2g's.The name and colours came from another rocket coaster I made several months ago, but have long since scrapped. Now on my to-do list: Supports, Cartextures, Copper alloy fins, station building and queue lines.

Sorta similar to Howitzer, but not with all the holes in the walls/rooves, and with more rocks and some glass pillars. (Fading from red to yellow, of course)

A couple of new screenshots now, more to come later tonight. I've got the the two Interlocking turns done, complete with custom Track connectors. I've also got about half of the pretzel twist supports done, plus some of the launch track.

Looks cool man. Although you stuck kinda basic, it looks very well executed.
