"Silva Incendia" IntaMega - released

[Turbo]

***Pics below if you want to skip story time

Ok, here's the story of how the idea came to be. I was in whistler a week ago and f\/cked my teeth up real bad. so I went to the dentist and he said to lay low for at least a month to make sure that everything is healing properly. So, besides having friends come over to see my hell-raising mouth, I have every day to do my EC high school course online(which takes about an hour), watching movies, and doing stuff on my computer. I remembered someone saying on their track description (It was for a contest, and mention if it was you who said it) that having camelbacks going up a hill and down a hill *if done correctly* can make the ride seem a lot longer and more thrilling. That phrase is where I got most of my inspiration, so without more boring crap here is the construction thread:

Name: Silva Incendia (Forest Fire in latin)
Type: Intamin mega
Lift: Cable-lift
Trains: 7-8 cars per train, 3-4 trains
Fun: YES

Method of Building: All Hand



Here is the first teaser pic:

Update part2

I got a lot of the basic trackwork done... now I am slaving myself for the smoothing...[B)]









Questions? Comments? Name Suggestions? every little bit may help

Looks good so far. Try taking a shot of the entire layout in the editor so I can see what the shaping looks like. Other than that it is looking good.

I have the same problem as you..... trying to find a name when you come up with a new ride[lol]

[Turbo]

Update part3... This time I have editor pics

Yeah looks good.

ArapahoeGOALIE07

How about Turbo, for a name? [:)]

Update: 8-6-2009

I decided that Silva Incendia will be the name for the project. Here are the new colors:



I am only using prefabs for the color testing. All supports on the final version will be custom.

Feel free to leave comments, questions, or suggestions. Every little bit helps [:D]

I would not use either of those colors. They are not appealing.

Well if you have color suggestions then bring it on

Silver (from the name) , and red or orange for supports. (for incendia) sounds like something flammable.

Yeah that does sound nice except. You should have a different shade of orange for the track with silver supports.

ArapahoeGOALIE07

Yeah, green and brown gives it that...barfing and then pooping look...not working...

Go for Green and light silver supports,

I got the name "Silva Incendia" from an online translator so I am not sure if it is correct, but it means Forest Fire. Thanks for the suggestions, I will have pics of the colors later today

Go for Green and light silver supports,

I think a brighter orange would look better for the track.

UPDATE TUESDAY, 8-11-2009

*New brighter color scheme. Please tell me what you think:

EDIT: I now have 2 different colors for the ride supports. which one should I chose?

the black for sure.

Silver/Gold.So hawt.
If you dont use it, I will. Lol.

Gold and Black...




For sure.

Use the orange and silver it looks better. The black supports will distract from the overall ride.
