That's an awesome drop, and a nice headchopper.
Can't wait to see how this turns out.

i liked it but, the only thing i think you pre-drop curve is too low you should make it higher :)

Thanks! I like the pre drop now, so I'll leave it like this.

Caution everyone: Cool coaster coming!

Thanks!

Really cool! Nice predrop and drop, everything looks amazing!

I'm glad you liked it!

Doesn't look much like a B&M Hyper, more like a B&M on steroids :P

lol, actually you're right :-)

I cannot wait too! It just takes some time...

Any more comments?

I like the tunnel. I like the drop. Why isn't this updated more often!
Definitely looking forwards to what kind of layout you'll do here because this is looking awesome so far.

The drop looks hectic! But I'm really not digging the pre-drop. That's just me though. Love the wing over the drop! Please make the rest of the body though! :D A custom body would be awesome!

Well, you'll see the new element now!

Could you show me what you want as pre-drop? I have to build the supports again, so I can make some changes to the track if you want. And, about the bird's body: will be somewhere else :P

Update!

I added a high-speed airhill, just like the one on Leviathan or Shambhala.

I have a feeling you're gonna make 2-3 more hills and then a hammerhead turn. ;) Looking epic as usual!

The signature you have requested is not available at the moment. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I really just dont like that pre turn. I think it just doesn't look nice at all. All the other stuff you made looks great though.

It looks more like an Intamin to me, especially with the pre-drop section and their supports.

I think if you make the spine on the crest a yellow rod plus a tan y clip should do it. then the pre-drop isn't as steep and you can still have the turn. Good luck! :D

YAY! THX!

Well, let's start with 1/3th hill :P

Thanks for your opinion! I will add a poll for this!

Well, this update is still not really B&M, but next one will look B&M-ish :D

Okay, I'll think about changing!

Well, that's what I wanted! Thanks!

Update!

I added a high-speed turn, and the first part of a camelback. I know the entrance is (way) too steep, I will change that later. Main reason to update now: I will add a poll, in which you can choose wether to keep this pre-drop, or to make the drop out of the lift no more than 25 degrees steep.

Well, Pictures!

The turn looks rather bumpy on picture 3, but it looks good from the other pictures so i guess that's fine. Looks nice so far!!

That turn looks so cool! Some spots (like the high-speed turn and the coming camelback) made me think of Leviathan.

Turn looks good, and I think I foresee another hill after this one. We'll see...

Edit- I clicked the wrong thing in the poll, because I mean to put out to change it's angle.

Well, the turn is completely bumpy ATM, so I think I might have to re-do it :(

Glad to hear that, because that part was inspired by Leviathan :)

We'll see, but not in this update :P

Update!

I had a lot of trouble with this ride since the previous update. Trains that don't make the hill, and after a lot of work a dad that knocks the entire lift and turnaround over. Whole track was deformed, meaning I had to re-build almost everything :'(.

So far I re-made the drop, lift and turnaround. I changed the turnaround to what most of you wanted according to the poll. Speaking about the poll, can a mod close/delete it? I have no idea how to do that (rolleyes)

I hope you like the new turnaround and drop!

I really hope to finish this thing soon, since it is under construction for more than half a year at the moment. To be precise, the coaster is now 6 months and 4 days old. :o

Looks better than before! I'm not an big fan of all the ''mini tubes'' tough, but I'm sure it's very strong that way.
