Hmm,I just thought about that ride a few days ago.Looks nice.Just a little suggestion for the theming.That rock which looks a bit like a rib on the second screen.Why dont you place some huge bones and skeletons,so like a little haunted theming.

Great looking ride, I really like the 3d's you have created for it. What 3d modeling program are you using?

Do you know anything about modeling programs? [lol] 3dsmax is a program that costs thousands of dollars if you actually buy it. It is also widely accepted as the best 3d modeling program. Sketchup is.....to put it nicely, poop. Especially for this application. If you do go with sketchup, though, don't buy the full version. Use the demo and ask someone else (like me) to export it. If you have a Mac, though, run a windows virtual machine and install the pro trial on that and the regular demo on the Mac, and export it Iike that. It tends to work out quite nicely, really.

Of course, if you're a student, you can probably get all sorts of kick-ass auto desk software for free (including 3dsmax).

depends on you, really. If you are good at modelling use Max, if you are new to modelling or just not very good, then use Sketchup. I've been using Sketchup for a few years now and I love it. It's very easy to use, perfect if you are a bit of a novice. I personally cannot get along with 3Ds Max.
