Wow, interesting drop. Ya the prodrop looks a little weird going down that far...

The predrop should be much higher up, and be sharper than the crest. Try to add a small straight spot, too.
The drop looks good, though. Will there be some kind of dive loop to get it down to ground level?

Sharper crest, otherwise, better.

The crest is fine, B&M inverts have long crests with a sharp predrop.

Is it smooth and long?

If I were you, I wouldn't even bother continuing. Inverts are extremely hard to make, even for me. I would go with something easier, like an Arrow looper.

I got kicked in the nuts for saying something similar once.
Anyway, he is right though, maybe try something else first. But if you really want to go ahead. But just continue building and experiment with all the options. Showing us every time you build something isn't helping you encourage either, we are coaster critics and we will most likely get your mood down since we are a bit nitpicky
Good luck!

This is completely off topic, but why is the Dutch Details logo the same as the Dolby Digital logo?

On the actual ride, there isn't much else to comment on that wouldn't repeat what other people said.
