SCROLL DOWN FOR PROJECT Neon!

Hello everyone! You may have seen this on NLE. It is my first NL2 project and it is 97% complete. The ride is a B&M Dive Coaster with a 248ft vertical drop off of a cliff. It features three inversions, two immelmans, one barrel roll, a second 179ft vertical drop, and a splashdown.

I recommend making those two supports in the last picture not collide.

I was wondering when I'd see a dive coaster pop up in the construction threads. Everyone seems to be make Cheetah Hunts/Storm Runners. What you've got looks like something SFFT might get if Six Flags ever paints a ride dark colors again. Getting the standard B&M style down pat lets you do funkier stuff later with it. Looks pretty cool.

Oh god this looks amazing! The cliff utilization, the shaping, and the layout is very concise and B&M-like. I like the scenery too. Looking forward.

How did you get it to start you out on the bridge and not in the coaster car?

Just put a link in the previous post. Thanks!

New Project!

It is a compact launched 4D coaster. It is very intense and has some very fun maneuvers. The trackwork still needs some attention but the layout is complete.

Thank you! I am currently reprofiling the pre launch so it is not so tight.

I really like the colours - different from the usual but really bold!

Finale looks pretty cool too - keep up the good work!

Everything looks good so far and I like the colors you've chosen. The swoopy bit at the end is really neat.

I like lateral supports coming from the rocky slope. Did you test the clearance?

Update! Introducing, Project Neon.

This is an older concept from a NL1 coaster I made that was a WIP when I bought NL2. I remade the whole ride, fixed some shaping issues, changed the finale, and came up with this!
