They've been painting it for 6 weeks now so the progress not *that* good!Painting continues and it looks like they are making good progress.
I can confirm that FL have entered into the CF Speed Build contest, and as such must keep theming to a minimum and make good use of landscaping instead...I'm hoping they'll do what the average planco player does and just smother it in foliage.
Edit: Great, now I want to play some Planco. I'm at work.
It's definitely possible, and was my initial thought, but you can see supports from the same angle that seem to be different shades. Still plausible though, maybe those darker ones are in a shaded area and the others aren't.I'm not convinced that it isn't simply the way that the color looks at certain angles in the sun.
I think grey with yellow supports actually makes a nice contrast next to Velocity. That's a shame!Painting continues and it looks like they are making good progress.

But where else will all of the budget go . . .I never expected there to be themeing for this coaster to be fair. I'm sure with a grey colour scheme and a name like Inversion, it wouldn't be hard to fit into the 'Metropolis area' where themeing is minimal anyway. Hero has an entrance sign, and wooden hut/station clad in steel factory flooring. Velocity has a weird shaped roof on the station. Yes Flamingo one fits this area, but it's hardly groundbreaking. For flamingoland on a whole, we get a nice station and queue entry sign.....that's it, not exactly themed......this new coaster doesn't have either!!!
In my opinion, the park has the usual light themes of an amusement park, similar to Six Flags, or cedar fair, the park is hardly a theme park! Although the zoo and pirate show stand out as themed additions!!
