oh ... rrp. it's so nice ...

Wow thats incredible RRP. So detailed and realistic! The only thing I am not sure about is a Batman ride at a non-SF park. I am sure that goes against a trademark agreement or licensing or something

The only thing I dislike is the lack of colour,
If only the supports weren't black I'd be way better IMO

Question-- why the extra helix to make it different from the standard model? Also why the choice of the short train?

Either way, it looks really nice, although there are some awfully questionable clearances in a lot of places (fences around the scrambler and the exit path with the first corkscrew. Everything else looks really fantastic; nice way to tackle the box supports on the lift. It's all quite detailed, which I really like.

What you guys think of this lay-out?

RRP...fucking sweet. Everything looks great from the awesomely detailed sign on the station building down to the drainage grates after the 2nd corkscrew. Verrrry nice.

Wow, RRP that looks great. I'm with inVersed, though; I'm curious as to why there's a Batman ride here.

The extra helix is to make it slightly different from the standard model and the short train is based from a photo.I do agree with the clearances though and as you'll probably notice when viewing the park the most recently built stuff relies a lot less on bad clearances compared with my older work

To answer the batman question,the main reason was to have a invert clone similar to blackpool but rather than beat CP6 with the SLC clone i chose the beemer

Why post it twice?

Seriously? That's all you can comment on? Why it's in two topics?
Because not everybody who visits THIS topic, will go to my park topic.

yeah, the lack of color really kills that screen for me rrp. it's probably the giant parking lot right next to a black and gray area that's doing it.

i feel that the batman clone layout is appropriate here. Just not the name/theme. Just because it is a batman clone layout doesn't mean it has to be a Batman coaster (ie Goliath at SFFT or Lightning at Entertainment City)

the fencing and pathing is overkill, mate.
i would remove one type of pavement, and maybe simplify the fences, i think that would make the screen feel less opressive.

that building is cute, and the foliage looks charming indeed.

Yeah you should have just done a recreation to the B&M: Batman model and themed it differently. As for the picture you saw with the 6 cars; that is only the only model with 6 cars. For a large theme park like this, it would most likely be 8 cars per train or 7 at the very least.

RRP - Not the most beautiful or aesthetic screen, but that is easily one of the most realistic, accurate, and well executed Batmans I have ever seen.

RRP - I like the screen. The execution and finish is very good. I don't think it nails what you’re going for with Blackpool but keep going. It just seems Blackpool would never enlist in batman to carry a theme for them. I think the coaster model is ok, I can see why you have added it, I don’t know I just think you've Americanized it and it bugs me a bit. Just me being a Brit and proud lol.

I disagree actually. On the real btr there's not enough ground clearance to have a path going through the middle there. I don't know, I just don't find this recreation as accurate as people make it out to be. Great screen nevertheless.

Hm, I don't know RRP I'm with CH33 on this one. While it's very good its just not bringing a Batman/Gotham City theme to me.

@faas, i'm gonna agree with sammy for the most part here. take out one of the path types, but i think if you toned down the white on the fence it would look much better. i'm not sure what color you could use but if you messed around with it i think it would be great.
