Slut for Spinners
Inspired by Wildfire at Silver Dollar City, Blizzard is a B&M multi looper on the side of a hill. Blizzard will feature the same elements as Wildfire, and a little more. Right now, the ride is about 160 feet high, with around a 50 foot elevation change between the current lowest point and the station. Here is a screenshot of what I have so far:

I'm still tinkering with the cobra roll. I don't know whether I should make it more narrow or the head part of it smaller or if I should just leave it. I also have no ideas on how to color the ride. If anybody has any suggestions, let me know.
 
It's looking promising. I'd like to see more of it. I totally agree with Brookes though, the Cobra looks very spacious!
 
I made the cobra roll a bit skinnier and I also added the loop, turn, and immelmann. The loop and turn are about as smooth as they're going to get. I still need to finish the immelmann and I'll probably tinker with the cobra roll for the rest of the build. I'm at the point where I need to set the ride up for the finale, which could end up interrupting the flow. I might have to redo this part a few times to get it right. Here's what I have:

I'm also messing with color schemes. I thought up pretty much the same thing as Alpengeist:

I also threw something similar to Wildfire to see what it would look like:

I honestly don't think either scheme fits, but I'll keep on building and experimenting before I make a final decision.
 
Honestly, I don't like those colour schemes. Maybe make the orange a bit lighter if you want that kind of colour. Onto the track itself I really like the look of the layout, but the head of the cobra could maybe do with going a bit lower as it looks a little tight, although the cobra looks better now it's not as wide. Keep it up!
 
I keep on forgetting to update, but at least I haven't been doing too much to get too far ahead. The layout is nearly complete, I only have the final few turns and the brakes. I also need to smooth out a few areas a bit more before supporting. I have also realized that this ride isn't the most fast paced ride, but I hope it doesn't take away from the final outcome.

Brookes; I worked on the color and I made it more faded. I also fixed the head of the cobra roll and it's now the best cobra roll I have ever done. Thanks for the help.

Here's what's new:

The circuit is complete and I'm in the process of smoothing and reshaping some of the elements. I'm surprised at how nice a lot of my elements have turned out, including the ending:

Feedback is appreciated.
 
Yummy, a little hope over the station before the Batwing. Looks nice.

If this track is smooth, you'll have a winner!
 
From that last picture from the flatspin onwards is awesome, that bit of layout looks fantastic and it seems to be shaped well too. I also prefer the new colours, looks to be coming along nicely.
 
I reprofiled the turnaround into the immelmann and I don't think it came out very nice. I'm going to try again, but I know that I have the right idea. Other than that, I have started some supporting on the low parts of the ride. I have also found some nice colors for the train, but right after, I started experimenting with cartextures, so who knows how they'll end up.

I fixed the turn and supports are about a third done. I also made a simple, but good looking cartexture.

The supports are done and the ride is getting tree'd:

If you have a suggestion, complaint, concern, comment, or would just like to put your word in before it's finished, let me know now!
 
I like it. The new foggy environment seems to really suit the coaster.

Looking forward to riding it :)
 
Imagine yourself lost in the Great Smokey Mountains. The sky darkens and you know it is going to storm. The temperature falls and you need to seek shelter. Out of nowhere, you find an abandoned railroad. You don't know where it leads or if it's safe, but you are desperate. You strap yourself in, hoping that at the end of the line is a nice lodge and a cup of hot chocolate. It's too late though. You deploy the cart and it starts to snow. The higher you climb, the harder the snow falls until the ride falls and swirls along with the flakes. Can you survive the treacherous Blizzard?

Enjoy!
 
AT your request, it was really nice, very smooth, but toward the end the pacing slowed down ever so slightly. Great ride though.

8.5/10
 
Jerking.. pacing is off.. transitions aren't that smooth... coulda been faster overall but its not bad
