Ice Blast - Compact Launch Coaster - SUPER MOOSE93 - Apr 21, 2014

i was getting bored of my current projects so i decided to make a coaster for a competition, 'Cheesy Compact Coaster Competition' to be exact, thought it would be a nice little challenge to see what i could make. i dont actually have a position in CCCC but i figured i would give it a go anyway

This is 'Ice Blast', a compact launch coaster located in the north pole. after leaving the station, you are launched into a diving loop at 60mph, dropping back down through a half loop and continuing onto a pretzel loop. After completing the pretzel loop, you make your way through a chain of turns, helix, and overbanks before hitting the brakes and heading back into the station.

instead of foliage, i will be placing ice blocks and rocks around the area. i want to replace the wall with something but im not sure what. it needs to fit in while still keeping the perimeter visual, probably end up being a line of rocks or a fence

i may have gone slightly overboard with the ice fields. it looks better when it is a little darker

Looks good. Personally I think the ice rocks makes it even cooler. Keep it up! Smile

Dang, the track layout alone looks great, but with the crystals it is even more grand!

THIS IS AMAZING! But may I suggest instead of using ATH Catwalks use GRP's Catwalks


RE: [WIP] Ice Blast - CCCC attempt - SUPER MOOSE93 - Apr 22, 2014

thanks for the feedback. i think this is one of my better designs

i dont have that catwalk set but i will find it and give it a try


RE: [WIP] Ice Blast - CCCC attempt - SUPER MOOSE93 - Apr 22, 2014

found the GRP catwalk set and used them instead. looks much better, just a pain trying to find the right catwalk when its all in french. i also added a sign

not too sure what else to add on now. i wasnt really supposed to do much outside the 20x20 area, just a few trees (in this case, ice shards) and i think doing more ice outside the area is pushing it
