In this picture, the corkscrews do look a bit mishapen, they seem to be quite tight on the entry and exit and yet loosen up around the top, when it should be the other way around.

More supportwork done, and the drop has been made more realistic. And the name has been confirmed of course. [:)]

Did you fix the corkscrews. I'm extremly picky about corkscrew shaping.

Are you telling me what to do?




Edit: Oh and in case you're going to continue whining, I did fix it.

You said the corkscrews were misshapen twice.

Isn?????????t Arrow corkscrews almost exactly circular with a funky banked, lateral G producing entrance and exit. Tiepilot35 hits the nail perfectly with those IMO.

Oh haha, so you just leech onto a more skilled designer's opinion and stand your ground strong?

Still to me, even in the picture you just posted, it looks slightly like the entrance to each corkscrew is a little stretched. The exits to each one look correct on the picture, but the entrances... i dunno, just looking down the right hand side of those corks as you're looking at them there, they just seem out.

The coaster does look cool though! And it probably is just my eyes with those corks [lol]

No, I agree; in every picture but the last one you posted, they do look a bit distorted. Good looking coaster otherwise.

So you're saying in the last picture, I fixed it... right? I did work on it. And check the new, final color scheme. I like it a lot; I really don't care what anyone else thinks, lol.

I do see what you mean Gouldy, but its only ever so slight. It could just be the angle though, because corkscrews always seem like that to me, even in photos of real coasters.

Although tiepilot, what are you doing posting in the hard hat area if you dont care what other people think?! Is that not slightly pointless?! I dont mean any offence, just, surely the reason to post in a hard hat area is to hear what other people have to say about your ride?!

Anyway, im liking the Wicked theme. I made a coaster called Elphaba not long ago, but never released it. Will there be any themeing based on Wicked?! I am assuming this is a Wicked theme anyway, from the name, the colour scheme and the picture under your name. Otherwise it is just a MAJOR coincidence. [lol]

One thing though, i think you should terraform a bit, particularly near the corkscrews, just to tie it into its surroundings a bit. Other than that, it looks great man [:D]

^It is indeed Wicked theme. And it's funny, I JUST two days ago got a link from my friend saying check out jpecool's Elphaba! You like Wicked too!

I'm planning on a cartexture, which I already have basically made.

And when I said I don't care what people think, it was only the color scheme. I made the rails green and I just fell in love with it, so I'm not changing it.

Thanks for the comment; not much progress has been made recently.

Experimental layout mirror, where it's more of a box overall. I kind of like the look of it, but it loses some speed.

looks interesting. I'm really digging the layout. Is This Hand built? or Tooled?

First off, which layout? Second, it's hand-built.
