Found some free time to play around with this

Some atmosphere from the Lost Kingdom area of the park

I am not completely sold on Medusa's layout. I feel if you are going to make the coaster floorless, you should have stuck with the more larger B&M style layout. If you wanted to be different however, you could have also made an awesome CCI wooden coaster and named it Medusa like the one in Six Flags Mexico (Which would probably be a 10x better idea stating the fact Phatage has already been here and done that Medusa layout). Also, the drop and turn leading up to the heart line look as if they don't have much of a flow to it.
As for the second screen, I do like it but I do feel that there are a lot of colors in there and should maybe be leveled out a tad bit better. Yet, it kind of works since this is a six flags park hehe.
Over all it's not some of my favorite work, but it is very promising. Keep at it buddy.

I like it. That last screen may be bright, but its really atmospheric.
There is only one thing that annoys me about Medusa and that the supports, but I guess they cant be helped. -

What do you mean by larger style.
If you mean that small B&M's should be sitdown or stand-up or something, that's not really true. Aren't the floorless coasters normally smaller then the sitdowns?
And also, I forgot to say...I think green would be better than the yellow. -

^No Comet. You misunderstood me. Plus I don't even know what your trying to say.
Both of the normal Medusa floorless designs are very spaced out and have a nice order of inversions throughout the ride. However, zburns's layout is very compact and not spaced out at all. Of course there is nothing wrong with being original, but when shooting for realism lean towards the realer style of the coaster.

Oh, I thought you meant it's too compact to be a B&M floorless in the first place, which it isn't.
I guess it is a little bit smaller then the existing Medusas though, so yeah, that's true.
