As noted there are a few spots that are a bit iffy, bit I really like it! You've impressed me as a veteran builder, as not many come back with modern style building!

The only thing worth adjusting is the top of the loop, the pullin and pullout are minor fixes and as far as I am concerned... They aren't an eye sore at all.

Great job so far man...

Very good, it reminds me of a coaster that Josh Monster and I recently built, but much larger and a bit smoother

Automation is my specialty
 

If only I had more space/pieces/time.

Besides the top, which is pointy, the loop looks nice. Is the beginning of your drop heartlined? That is somewhat important.

Fixed the drop, what do you guys think?
Next is a loop wrapped around the lift.

Certainly an improvement from the last drop. Overall, the shaping is better, but the first half of the drop could flare out a bit more. Also, the beginning needs more banking/heartlining.

Try and use a different color tubing in the center, It may look better, the drop looks fine in my opinion.

Loop is up! I definitely need to rough out some sharp spots but i wanted to get some pictures posted before i went to bed. I was afraid that at the angle and position the drop ended that the loop wasnt going to fit over the lift but surprisingly it did. And the train has room to clear. heres the pics.

Smooth the loop out put the top a bit down and then you will have a very nice loop.

Edit: I also see a lot of straight spot's in it. And just before the pull in there is also a straight spot.
