Another realistic design by me...[:D]

I am still working on my other two projects (the woodie and the shuttle) but those were getting boring, so I have started this little project.
It is in the early stages, but coming along quite nicely.

Some rough stats of the coaster at its current stage are:
Speed - 105km/h
Lift hill hieght - 156 feet
1st Loop hieght - 117 feet
Overbank - 94 feet
Diveloop - 108

BLeh, Although the track looks pretty spiffy, what doesn't look spiffy is those colors! I mean it just screams, "EWWWWwwwww!" [lol]

The color is fine but the saturation could be lowered.

Plus without supports its hard to tell how it will look in the end. So dont go telling people what to do with thier colors if:

A: Its not done yet
B: You dont suggest any

I like what I'm seeing. And I too agree with the nasty colors. Any ideas you have for them and a name?

I have been thinking about Thunderbolt, Lightning or something along those lines as I have a pretty cool logo in my mind dealing with a lightning bolt that I want to create.

As for colours, I have no idea, but I might try and adjust the blue and white scheme to make it look a bit better.

^But still kind of overused. You might think about Thunder or Lightning but in a different language.

I don't really want to use any names that have been used on a real life coaster...

Umm... What is with this site and names/colors... What about further design ideas and whats to come?

Voyage is a pretty plain name but it will be a kick-ass coaster!

The ride looks really nice. It seems to have a pretty good layout, and I know it'll be smooth. You just need to darken the blue a little to get a good color scheme.

EDIT:Maybe Tempest as a name, it's somewhat storm related.

He wants it to be dealing with lightning.

So Chris, straying from all the non-important poop... What are the woodyish elements in the thing?

I uploaded 5 new screenshots showing some of the work that has now been completed after the dive loop.
I have also lowered the hieght of the dive loop so as to be sure the train isn't going too slow up there.

^FN uses elementary for his coasters. So I would think it would be smooth.

I thought you were building a woodie(which you are) and got that mixed up with this. Looks nice so far(this one) but how many inversions are you planning on?
