jensen-nator - summer project - first track pics!

Ok, well ive been trying to get back into coasters lately. Haggard did pretty well and this is my first project since then. im not going to say or show to much of the layout or what im doing, but i wanted to try making a custom station out of supports. i cant do 3D work yet, so i thought i'd do the nest best thing. for now im going to show some pictures of the station i made today out of supports, i was trying to hide the track work i had. those pictures will be later when i have more of the track work done.


















so those are just some teaser shots.
PLEASE tell me what you think about my station, and tell me if i have anything wrong or anything that just looks funny.
its my first custom station, and i hope it looks alright.
thanks for your time everyone. [:D]

the station looks cool [:D]

haha, thanks a lot man. [:D]
ive been waiting for someone to notice!

ya i like how its made out of tubes it gives it a really nice look especially on the top white

yeah, i thought wood would have looked bad with the type of coaster and colors i was using.

If you ever want to go all out with the custom station, just align the corners of the station platform with free nodes, and then completely trace around the station. Then take simple station off and you really have something to look at.

hey, thats a good idea.
im going to see what i can do, thanks man!!!

looks amazing dude, glad to see your back into coasters... tomorrow I'll see what i can do with that immelman roll... (oops, hope i didn't give anything away...)

nah, its ight man.
that sounds good.
and thanks man.

Solid custom station, so far. It could use more.

yeah, thats what im thinking, but im trying to think of more.
thanks though. [:D]

hey, thanks man!
glad you like it.

does anybody have any ideas on what i could do to add to this?
i changed it a bit, but its only minor chages.
like the roof having some over lay off the front and back of the station to look better.
but other then that, its basically the same.
so suggestions are welcome.
[:D]

maybe extend the top of the roof into a trapezoid figure, similar to corkscrews???

well if your not doing anything tomorrow mike, i could send it to you, and maybe i can come over and we can work on it.
if you want to, lol.

ehh, i havn't found a way to fix the immelman... we would get side tracked.

Update!!!!

well im working on my station, and i came up with this.
i kinda like the trippy look.
so comments are welcome, please tell me what you think, what you like better, or what you think i should do.
here are the pictures!!!















ANY SUGGESTIONS???
haha, does this look alright?

Hope you're planning on adding an entrance/exit.

EDIT:

Not to burst your bubble, but when you put your track through the auto-flanger its gonna make that station look WHACK.

haha, i might not, cause the normal station doesnt have one, and im not sure about doing all of that.

and yeah, i have to go back threw and delete all the flanges. :/
me and TMV talked about that last night at his house, lol.
itll be time consuming for sure, lol.

It will also turn all the tubes black that are individually colored, so my suggestion would be to change everything to wooden beams until after the supporting and then convert them all back to tubes, and select the sizes and such. But for sure get rid of the colors before unless you really wanna do all that three times.

ok, yeah, thats all true.
alright, thanks for the tips.
ill keep that in mind when i get to that stage.
i still have like 85% of the layout to go, lol.

Haha. You should just upload your station and see what people do.
You should put track in the screenshot and leave people lost for words.

haha, that would be a good prank, lol.
one of us should do that when its least expected, lol.

Someone who's read this topic is bound to do it. To bad April fools isn't here for another 8 months.

wow uhm, we planned on working on the layout of the coaster, but instead ended up playing battlefield2142 the entire time... fun stuff right there... so about that messed up immelman???
