Wyvern Blaze

It's been quite a few years since I last uploaded a track; far longer than NL2 has been out; so I wanted to return in a bit of style. The Cutback Contest seemed like the perfect opportunity to reintroduce myself to the old and the new, and get reacquainted with the tools. I've become obsessed with layouts recently, so I wanted to make a ride that looked good from all angles, and flowed together nicely; interacting well with itself and its surroundings. The product of this effort was Wyvern Blaze, a ride with several interesting elements, and one where the track near you is just as exciting as the section you are on. Yes, this ride has head-choppers. Lots and lots of head-choppers. It's styled as a kind of modernized Arrow, but with greatly faster pacing and a more compact footprint than the ride it was loosely based off of, Drachen Fire. Oh and the yellow train runs backwards. For fun.

Here's some shots of the track:

What, like on Cannibal? I'm pretty sure if Arrow tried that people would die.

It already has the backwards train of death lol.

Just thought I'd post this because it's kinda cool

^ Looks chic, so you should put it as an entrance logo!

Updated to include an early draft of scenery, expect a polished version to release before contest deadline

Put NL supports on the model lol

One great chance to turn that object into a solid and even vendable coaster model... from a monument!

New station is coming along nicely, I simulated some cloth falling on the structure and then solidified and re-meshed it to form the roof.

Updated with custom station, added storage tracks, smoothed first loop significantly.

Well, I also expected to see the tablecloth-like station!
