Aaah MCM at it again. I like it though the middle of the drop does look slightly straight from that angle. But once we get a side view I think I could tell better then.

God Damn you and your amazing tube supporting skills.
I am considering hiring you to teach me.
Looks good so far. It might be straight but straight parts in a drop (as long as they are not massive) are normal. Nice job.

That drop, is attractive right now, as something really attractive, like, a nudist, hot, my aged girl.
I have a good plot for the film, something off of Mastodon's album 'Leviathan'

Dude, nice! The crest seems sharp to me. Where will you put the gear? Could this be something like an Apollo's Chariot recreation?
Thanks Rollerdude!

Definitely looks like it, or maybe even Raging Bull. Notice the supports.
Or, it could just be based off hypers with pre-drops.

ooohhh I sense an epic coaster approaching....and an AC re-cre would be even more epic. Whatever it is, looks awesome so far I assume an airhill is next?

I don't think it'll be a recreation.. that helix would kill a ton of speed, and Apollo has terrain changes that would be hard to build with.
Anyway, I see nothing wrong with the shaping, looks perfect.
There was one thing with the supports though, the base of the supports in the red circles aren't lined up right, the vertical one should be on the metallic rod.
