Well, It's been an extremely long time since I have been able to do this, but I finally started something new! Well... I guess as new as you can get when you are so excited that you leave the station up from the previous coaster, because you were so eager to build again. I'm sure that made no sense, so anyways, this new Eurofighter I am going to be making is going to be called destruction, I'm sure you were able to guess that. And I am hoping that it will be similar to the last one I had last summer before I tried to make the re-creation of rage at Adventure Island, Great Britain. Again, that was confusing, so here is a picture of it:

Now that you have somewhat of an idea, here are some pictures of the pre-lift of this new coaster:

And here is a test video:

 

 

That's about it. Let me know if you have any ideas, thoughts, comments or questions!

No, sure, sometimes, yes.

 

 

 

I know it hasn't been long, but I have another update. I built the lift hill, placed the MCBR (possibly just a final breakrun) over the pre-lift and built the zero-g.Here are a few pictures:

Looking great so far! I feel like you should get more speed out of the first element. Maybe make more tts connections? It looks like you only have one on each. Also when will the final video be out for the other coaster?

How do I upload a picture here omgg.

I too, think the first element could've been a little higher but regardless, I like where the layout is going.

I like this EuroFighter! It looks like a lot of fun to build. My favorite part is the serpent roll.

I think this could be a really interesting layout! Also I can't blame you for keeping the old station, it looks awesome! The only thing I would change is the immelman (I guess it is a sea serpent roll if you count the inversion after it, but I think the second inversion is fine), I think the part after the half loop looks a little weird. Also making it taller might help. Otherwise I really like it!

Thanks! I know I should make the first element bigger, but I am not sure if I am going to just yet. It will probably all come down to what else I am going to add the coaster. I will definitely add more supports. The release of the other video is going to be a surprise until I give you this hint - it's comin' up in exactly 47 days.

Why do you harass me this way?

It has been a blast so far! I too am very happy with it, but there is something about the pre-lift that makes me really happy.

Thank you! I agree, the second half of the Immelmann does look a bit odd, but I think I like it. I didn't know it right away, but I am trying to make this really unique. 

 

 

 

 

I'm back! I feel like I am going to build the way I always build, which is where I fly through the layout, but then I take a very long period of time fixing the supports and ugly bits of track. So don't worry just yet! Here are a few pictures of what I have made:

I think the entrance to the second roll is a bit too drawn out looks-wise but then again, I guess it would create a cool experience to ride on.

Maybe you can move the top of the roll more towards the start of the roll, making it a bit more symmetrical. But in general, I really like the flow of this ride and the clean look. Good job.

The roll reminds me of Steel's Clockwork kind of roll. I think it looks fine just how it is and this definitely flies through the layout!! Its kind of like an upside-down Shambhala element. Very cool.

I agree, I plan to fix that before the final video.

That is a very good idea - I'll have to try that. Thanks!

I was thinking the same thing, however, from some angles it looks it a bit awkward. Thanks!

 

 

 

 

I know I have been posting very frequently, but after this update, I don't think I will have another one until I finish the coaster. Unless someone recommends I change the end of the coaster. In that case, there will probably be one more update before the final video. Anyways, I have pretty much finished the layout. I have a few things I need to fix, but that's about it. Here are some pictures of it:

As you can see, it is kind of a boring ending, but I don't feel like thats much of an issue.

Like I said, this will most likely be my last update until the final video. In the mean time, if you have any recommendations feel free to leave them, because I will continue checking this thread just incase someone has a better idea for the end of the ride.

I don't think you'd have to much speed to do anything to outlandish anyway. Besides, this is cool little ride so why overcomplicate it? I think I almost want to have a go at a eurofighter again after Minotaur. The last (and only) one I've built was 2012.

The station roof curves downwards? Yay. I like the lengthy pre-lift section. I can already tell that the 2nd and third inversions will make for some pretty dope shots for a video. 



I'm not done building yet.
