Himeros

Himeros is a fast paced Rocket coaster inspired alot by stealth and xcelerator from Knotts Berry Farm.
Alot of my coasters have had some really good reviews where you guys have been helping me in what
areas I need to work on, so Ill be leaving some previews here and look forward what you guys think.

Going up


Coming down


My Custom supports


The layout


The station


The trackwork isnt final and neither is the colour choice.

Does the "s" turn before the launch serve a significant purpose? If not you could probably line it up a bit more adding extra room for just a bit more track

It will probably change, but as for now im planning to put the queue line round there.

Hmmmm Xcelerator much? I'd align the station more with the launch track if you've got room.

Yes alot like Xcelerator, I'm hopeless when it comes to planning a rollercoaster layout and i have aligned the station with the launch and also changed the colour, will post more screenshots soon just gonna spend abit more time on the track .

Looks like uou've got a tonne of speed to work with at the end of that from the looks of things. Maybe take some inspiration from Storm Runner or add in a bit more twister section. Like a signature inversion over the station or something!

Wasn thinking about doing that, the ride is too short and I have added alot of terrain so im gonna redo the last half of the ride and make it abit more fun!
Will post a rough preview after.

:Update

Improvements made including; Extra trackwork, New paint job, and added terrain (not finished)








Needs work




















Let me know what yu think

Lol it looks more like Xcelerator as the days go on, but only in the first bit, otherwise its looking great so far!

Xcelerator is a fantastic roller coaster so take it as a good thing the comparisons xD

Thanks for the positive messages and dont pay attention to the supoports they are just placed to see how they would look

[TTD03]

Oh yea, I don't usually pay attention to supports usually, unless you have quite a large chunk without one.
Anyways, the Xcelerator comment is not a bad thing, as Oscar said, it is a fantastic roller coaster.
Why else would I have ridden it 50 times in 3 days last November?

Looks much better now! That heartline roll looks a bit un-heartlined however? Might be the angle...

Im still learning how to make decent supports and im glad people think the start looks like Xcelerator thats what its inspired by
The only intamin Launched coaster I have ridden is Rita Queen Of Speed

Oh jeez get yourself down to Thorpe Park - It's Xcellerator standard but Rita is piss poor!

Might try and get myself down there this summer and your right, I hate how the restraints bash into your neck

Any better?

[mkingy]

Far better

UPDATE
Been focusing on the track work making sure all G's are in place and trackwork is banked smoothly.
Had a go at making some intamin supports, they look crappy so ill spend more time on them soon.
Here are a few previews

Personally, I'm not really a fan of the new colours. And the top hat looks a bit wide compared to other accelerators around that height. That said, I'm liking how everything else is turning out.

[TTD03]

Yea I am not too crazy about the color change either.

[Coasterkidmwm]

It's the rails lol. They're a bit much. Aside from that your supports are looking very nice so far.
