Hello this is my first coaster on the site also my first thread, now I've been working on the coaster during my winter break. I am sorry for the terrible picture quality, our families pc is down so I have to take pics and post from my iPad ,anyway i didn't plan on recreating the track layout due to space issues, so far I only have one side of the track done and I might add both sides I plan on having rock work and scenery by this month or so...

There suppose to be breaks and that's all I have to use.
Here's an update on the crystal caverns which is right after the lift hill the crystals have been installed. They are not as bright in person.

You always could add a booster and then every thing would be so peechy.

I love the use of foam blacks and carving them to look like rocks. Get a can of spray paint and a brush to add some colourdetails. Awesome!
