Cool Adrenalin presents: Artemis: God of the Wild

Yes... I am back and building again. About time, too. I am pretty excited to make this coaster, I think it has a pretty good idea to it. Artemis: God of the Wild will be far from a normal ride in a hopefully good way and somewhat realistic. I am excited to be back here on SSC and hopefully this will be a quality ride.

Here is just a random picture of Tuscarora:





Expect more on this on the weekend.

I don't know how you manage to put all those flexies in there.

Well, nothing's bad, it's just a lift

^Don't you know how chubs loves to put massive amounts of flexis on everything? Haha.

Looks good to the eye actually, I must say the crest seems to start cresting to soon. It looks a bit weird but it's ok.

To tell you the truth, all those flexis look unnecessary and almost ugly. Looks great otherwise.

I have absolutely no idea what I am going for, I just felt like throwing them on haha. I think the crest looks fine Lazor, Jesus Christ.

Hopefully I can update tomorrow with something worthwhile...

Re: Artemis: God of the Wild

Why is everybody making drops like SZ's woodie?

Shaping looks great. Do you have a layout planned?

Re: Artemis: God of the Wild

It looks sharp after the crest. Other than that it looks pretty good. The max crossties look kinda nice.
EDIT: ok fine there's a lot of crossties but anyway it still looks nice

^^^I am unaware of SZ's Woodie. Thanks

^^ Haha I don't know, it could be. Thank you.

^Where? Not Max X-ties at all.

Thanks for the comments.

Re: Artemis: God of the Wild

Chubs, I'd highly suggest you check out my woodie.

I really like it, it looks like it has over-heartlining goodness! Not much else to comment on.

Re: Artemis: God of the Wild

To everyone thinks he's copying, isn't it obvious he's going for the heartline? If anything you should be going at steel for that...

Over-heartlined I think. And I would make the predrop shorter, it looks too stretched out.

Re: Artemis: God of the Wild

Iggi made a great point to me (which is a first ) that the pre-drop's heartline shouldn't raise that much. I fixed it up and the crest a little bit and I think it looks better. Tell me what you think:





Comment and enjoy.

Much better! Previous comment about pre-drop same though, but you didn't see it til now, so didn't expect it to be fixed.

Shortened (in length) the pre-drop and finished the drop. I am pleased with how it looks but tell me if you see anything. Pictures:







Enjoy and comment.
