There is one thing that all of the Wing Coasters lack in their designs; directional changes. The s-turn on Thunderbird will probably be the coolest part because of the quick level change on the wide trains. This is Renegade. (Name is not official)

I'm really happy with the drop shaping on this.

This overbank is what I'm talking about. It's a high speed turn that really takes advantage of the Wing coaster's wide range of motion.

I've started the scenery work. It's kind of hard without a theme in mind.

Only one element is left unsupported and that's because it's proving very difficult. Wide trains= difficult supporting and it's even harder when you have track directly under an inversion.

3D modeling is a learned skill. Just keep practicing, watch tutorials, and take criticism and improve upon it. I actually took an Autocad class my freshman year of high school that significantly improved my skills. The hardest thing in my mind is scale. When I'm designing, I have to keep that default sketchup guy on screen just so I don't over or under proportion stuff :lol:

I'm using TheCodeMaster's trains. I may want to edit them a little depending on the theme but they are better than anything I could have created. I can get the trains attached but I can't get the spacing right. I'll show them off as soon as I get the script right.

I really want to go all out with this project. Would anybody be able to help me with catwalks and the train scripting?

I really like the color scheme. The only thing I really would change, is the supports on the drop.

Fine tuned drop supports a bit. My inspiration is mostly Flug der Daemonen

The connector is a little off but I'll work that out sooner or later.

I think with wingriders, their the perfect coasters to have a barrel roll after the station. What's it called a jojo roll or something?

Going through a power plant tower keyhole would be cool. This coaster gives off a toxic waste vibe, if that makes sense. :lol:

Other than the structural nightmare of pulling that off combined with the substandard view of the sealife while you as through the tunnel spinning at 25mph? Nothing per se.
