I think I finally have the skill to try this.

Umm it looks like Bigfoot stood on the smiler! By the way better change your sig...unfortunately it's not the record

Anywho that's a good start!

Much better than your attempt a while ago. Looks good, but due to my limited wifi i can't check google for comparison pics.

Thanks, I was inspired by your Kumba recreation.

I made a Loop.

Your loop overall shaping is looking pretty good overall, however, if you're trying to be as accurate as possible, it is too skinny. Compare:

[FrIeDeGgS]

Wow that is a tight loop, the height and the speed is good though, I think the loop needs to be wider like this: http://coasterbuzz.c...rPhotoImage/207

[TheCodeMaster]

That Better?

[SCM]

Yes, that is much better. However there are some small hills in the loop that will just kill your speed if you don't get rid of them.

[TEDDSTER]

Very cool!!! And i agree with SCM.

[william0510]

It looks like there are straight spots on the left and right sides of the loop, and the top doesn't seem extremely supported but other than that it looks pretty good.

[Muzz135]

That's better than the first but like the others said it just needs to be smoothed out a bit but looking good overall!

[crazyracer]

Like Muzz135 said it needs to be smoothed out , and fix all the straight spots like coming into the loop there is a huge straight spot but is not a big deal to fix , just takes time , but good job

[Cardsandcoasters]

I do think it could be a bit wider, it's still kinda skinny. http://rcdb.com/617.htm?p=577 Good work though!!

I think if you widen your loop by 1, maybe 2 yellow rods, your loop will look a lot better. However, widening it will make those straight spots become bigger, so you'll have to work on fixing those.

[TheCodeMaster]

Here's what I don't get:

Seems Alright? But are you sure its too thin?

[mitch]

now that I look at it, it looks good. Its almost perfect, just fix the bumps. Also that zero g roll looks pretty tall, I'm wondering if you can get the zero g roll to make it

[TheCodeMaster]

^ Its not that tall, its just the perspective of the photograph I used

[FrIeDeGgS]

Hmmm... I think if you fix those straight spots it'll be good, and also it looks like you should start the pullout later or something.

[Muzz135]

Your pull I'm is ok just fix the bumps but the pull out needs to start later like FrIeDeGgS said. I like the way you merged the photo it's really well done and shows you what bits are wrong!

[TheCodeMaster]

Fixed the bumps, and reinforced the whole loop
