After losing enough interest in Montra, I said F-it and stopped building. And I have been wanting to build another massive wooden for a while now, so may I and the boys from lebotech present...
Coyote
This one is massive, at almost six grays tall, it my tallest wooden coaster. It's inspired by El Toro, so I have this layout so far, Lift, drop, hill, el toro turnaround, more hills going through lift supports, some sort of turnaround helix then station. On to pics.

It could be a little steeper if your going for a Intamin prefab coaster, but its fine. It is very big, are you going to have enough pieces?

Could we have a side view of the drop/pullin to the hill?? The hill's crest should be smaller, and less lopsided (compare to: El Toro (Six Flags Great Adventure)). Fix that and your good.

It doesn't look right with the black connectors. There are big gaps in the track which makes it look bad.

Matter of opinion, MP.

I think it looks pretty damn nice. But you have got to take some direct side-views because judgement can easily be impaired with the pictures now. I like the hybrid structure, reminds me of Jersey Thunder.

Hopefully you will pull through witht his one, Woodies are hard to make, especially hard to stay focused on, too.

Good old school woodie. I love it.

The first drop is aw3som3 sauc3.

There are some issues with the first air hill, but I think it's an easy fix when you look at hard enough.

From what I can see it looks great, keep it up and finish this one this time.

Yea, hopefully. And I'm still working on the hill.

Well if you were going for an El Toro turnaround then it should be changed a bit, but I personally like how it is. Only things I would suggest fixing the overheartlined last pullout, smoothing the first turning drop and making some more track connections (it sounds like nitpicking but those are all easy :P).

I will work on that when I get some time to build.

The picture isn't working for me.

And for all that's reading, I'm still working on this coaster, and I haven't lost interest, but I just don't have the build as much anymore. So remain calm and I'll have an update soon enough. And keep the comments coming!
