ahh right,the element under the lifthill? like you say thats the part a mcbr would fit nice which is also what i was thinking.At this point im thinking a drop from the mcbr into a helix under the turn i've just made then out the back into the loop and the end brake run could hopefully work.What d y think?

The overbank thingy looks really good to me, probably even better with the right colours :). I couldn't make up the next element of your lay out sketch, so can you please tell me?

I was expecting a low to the ground overbank, but this works well.

Dude, that overbank turn is gorgeous. The shaping is so smooth and fluid. This thing's gonna be a stunner once it's done.

yeh that was the intention,just tried a higher turn idea.I have not been 100% happy with the turn(the way it looked more than anything)so i have since lowered the turn so it is now a very low high speed turn as initially intended and i am now very happy with it.

hello Devious,if you look three posts from the top there is a link on how to make the catwalks.

it is a very fine mesh from my local model shop

thanks a lot scooterdoug!!! i have as said above since lowered the turn to the original design.I am pretty sure you will like the lower turn and i will have some pics in the next few days.There will also be an interesting element taking shape around this area.

That underground section is so awesome! You're putting a lot of effort in this coaster. The turn looks great and everything looks very realistic, keep it up! :)

For a moment, I thought that vacuum in the background was a coaster haha. The low turn looks great with the trees and the brown ground. Great work, and build fast!

yes sorry for such a big gap between an update,the reason this(which im suprised no one has noticed)is because this is basicaly a totaly new coaster.I have kept the lifthill and part of the first drop and also a few little bits of terrain but other than that not alot.

the original Pharoah was basicaly one solid piece which was okay until the wife started talking about moving house.Cut along story short ive had to cut my loses and start an equaly large coaster,but make it in two long,narrow parts so they can fit out my loft hatch quite easily.

a couple of slow mo vids,apoligies poor quality on this setting
