Archelaus
Archelaus is Greek for "rule of people".
This is my new invert that I have worked on for the past 4 days. It looks near perfect IMO. I also tried for realistic supports. And before I made the Immelman it looked like Batman. Pics:


















Next up is a helix. I wanted the first few elements to be like Talon/Patriot. Not sure what after then but if I do a twister section (which I am hoping to) it will be under the lift/drop area. Comment please!

Re: Archelaus
Looks sweet, personally, i'd love to see a batwing! I know it's not like Talon or Patriot but hey maybe you could fit it in. Keep up the good work!

How many pieces and sets do you have now?

That zero-g is amazing, it looks exactly like the real ones on B&M inverts! I haven't seen a ton of CD coasters before, but this is awesome!

Re: Archelaus
You should have a brake run and some catwalks or something, cause this thing is super-realistic looking....nice job.

Re: Archelaus
^^Thanks! I used all the speed and length I could get out of a 2 foot lift. Pretty amazing I could even get it this long. I could make some breaks to put in the station area but I'm not sure if it would engage the lift when it comes back through if I did that. Dunno about Catwalks.

^Thanks!
