      Hi there, do some of you follow the 3d challenge blog? I do. There's already another new challenge, a roller coaster/amusement park challenge. Here's the official post. My entry (W.I.P) is the willy-nilly coaster, or ''the impossible'' πŸ˜„ Working on trains, poles and other detail.

        I'm a little confused.

        I read through the front end brief description of the rules, and also the pdf that goes into greater detail. I found nothing about what g forces are to be maintained on the riders. . .or not exceeded. . .positive, negative, lateral.

        Did I miss something, or is this just a contest to make the most whimsical looking contraption possible?

          That segmented loop indeed looks rather impossible (or at least it will shake the sh***t out of the people)

          Anyway, cool looking so far!

          Gai...

            Well, cyberdactyl, basically the challenge is to see who can make the most detailed of the challenge topic. For example, the challenge's topic would be roller coaster, so usually the winner is the one who can make the most detailed coaster

            Gai, you'll see what I mean by ''impossible'' when I finish the model....
