Draken is a B&M Floorless coaster that submitted to be a NE Design. Unfortunately, it wasn't good enough to make the cut. It's a really simple design with a layout that I still really like. The problem is there wasn't really too much theming...okay, there is no theming. It's basically coaster, trees, and architecture.
Anyway, here is something for you guys to enjoy, but don't expect to be anything amazing. Just a lil diddy.
looks good nice landscaping (although there is a bare patch in there), and you could've used other flowers but i like everything else, and i like the coaster colours too
I thought it was kind of nice. Very solid, with good colours and an okay track design. The architecture shows promise in my opinion. Keep on improving and you'll rock, slob.
Very nice stuff. As you said, bit void in terms of themeing, but the layout was nice and the architecture was solid, if unadventurous. A good warm up for your PT entry....
Well.
The colors of the coaster were great. The classy, dark purple seems to be "in" now, so-to-speak. The architecture was fab and shows some talent, which, you obviously have. Nice work slob.
This acually seemed worthy of a place on the Designs page.
Maybe next time.
I think I see why Iris didn't take this one slob. It really just felt un-inspired to me: the architecture, most of it being or stemming from a two x two block, was very repetitive and didn't seem like individual buildings were thought out. The coaster itself had many places that could've been smoothened out, and it just feels like it was the first draft of the coaster without any time taken to perfect the layout. Imo it was way overpaced in that it lacked major variation between speeds. Its fine to let a coaster go slower at the top of a loop, its more fun that way for most loops besides those great high-g schwartzkopf ones. I don't know, it just felt rushed and that you didn't really care about it, not like your pro designs which I liked much more than this; even if they are older.

The coaster had a nice layout. It's a shame it wasn't submitted though. I bet it would have been one too...
