    Very cool! Love the plane in the helix

    Pretty dark theme! But like trav said pretty nicely done. That plane is great!

    Might be the unfinished-ness of it all but the coaster colors seem a little *too* dark. I think a brown with a fun colored rail similar to most RMCs does the trick here.

    Station is cool, as are the custom planes. Overall shape is a little simple though, maybe through in an adjacent tower similar to the ones you find at small airports? On a smaller scale of course. Just something to spice up the slight squareness of the structure.

    yeah i definitely think that it needs to be a lighter colour.

    really interesting colors. loving the helix as well

    Maybe it's because I'm only seeing a small portion of the layout, or because it's an RMC in RCT2, but something about it is... off. I'm not really sure what though, it may just be the color.

    The color reminds me of one of the default wooden coaster color schemes, maybe that's why everyone thinks it's weird. The station is stellar though, keep it up!

    I like this a lot, but it could benefit from a brighter color.

    the black is ugly to me, everything else is lovely

  • Deurklink%s's Photo

    Sooo.. black. And massive.

    I'd consider a more natural wood color as others have mentioned; finish up the area with some more details and you'll see the score increase by at least 5-10%.

    I dunno, it looks good, but I think there's just too many limitations in trying to make an RMC right now that hinders it

  • RWE%s's Photo

    I agree about the colors, and Steve made a great suggestion with that tower, otherwise great stuff! Keep it up!

    Thanks all. I wanted the coaster to specifically not look like a wooden structure (due to this park being steel-themed and all. I tried grey in the beginning, which would be more realistic (think Wicked Cyclone at SFNE), but it looked like crap. 

     

    Coaster is brown now, with some purplish-pink rails. Will post an update screen later.

    I would maybe change the elaborate support structures you have there to a custom-made one. It's more work, but I think it will pay off in the end. Also add some more vertical elements, like the tower Steve suggested. 

  • BlazingEmpireHD%s's Photo
    Plane in the helix is the highlight for me. However, I cannot get over the coaster colours; as I have suggested to you, the black is too overpowering and it is worse with black supports. I'd suggest making the 'wooden supports' grey or brown, and have the rails of the steel black.

    Here's an update. Hope you all like it better, I do.

    Personally I thought that the black looked fine. Might not want to ride it on a hot summer day, but I prefer that to the current wine country look. The tower is a nice addition, though.

    Some unfinishedness in the upper and lower right portions of the screen, but thought this was fun and wanted to share it before H2H begins!
