After seeing the russian ride below's frankly horrible colour scheme - what are your worst / best colour schemes?

I too think the colors of BGW's new coaster look nice.

Rapteesha looked better with the old supports, and X much like Scream! looked great until the sun baked it too hard.

(I'm thankful the yellow loops with regular orange track trend died and wasn't used on Rougarou)

~ That Dragon Arrow coaster in Hong Kong that someone already linked to is hideous now
~ Iron Dragon. Especially since half of the supports don't match since they only bothered to repaint what you can see from the midway.
~ Boomerang at SF St. Louis (same as Pandemonium)
~ The blue B:TR's
~ EVERY. SINGLE. RIDE. AT SOCHI PARK

Iron Dragon's supports are all the same color..... And just wondering, do you like Dragster's then? It has the exact same colors.

Dragster has yellow and white supports. Iron Dragon has orange and faded orange supports. You can see both varieties in the picture I attach. I honestly prefer the "sun kissed" faded orange over the recent refresh of the orange paint.

I don't think you'll have to worry. It appears it was repainted to have orange supports next year.

Don't forget the Rougarou Green support bases along the Bayou route. I would have rather had them break the scene than get half-painted. It's not like you forget you're in a park. Although, if they all go the full green paint and a brighter track it would give a cool blending effect with the trees, especially at night.

Everything Egyptian has to be Montu colored.

Montu's colors are a bit faded to post, but still had to mention it's B&M's standard for Egyptian colors
