Now I really am going to give you credit for your effort. I think you did a fine enough job with the painting.
Don't forget to do the bottom of the pendulum. And the motor which gets it going.
Would the pendulum happen to reverse and swing higher like the real ride does?

Wow I'm really impressed with that. That's awesome that you got a motor hooked up to it and it spins.

The Orbit would look cool, and if you want to go for broke a model of American Eagle would surely be a project LOL

I'm thinking about doing a V2 model. The plan is still in my head though.

Yes, but some of the other rollercoaster models that people can make are amazing. Espically if they work! Intamin box track isn't that hard to replicate and V2 has a fairly simple structure.

the trains would be difficult- i was thinking that you could make a frame out of 1/8 sticks of balsa wood and cover it in sheets of balsa wood. im also thinking of making a model of demon drop- the same kind of thing as "the edge" which had an accident at sfgam in the late eightys.
