My German Project!!

[thrillrideseeker]

So I have a project for German! I have to research something from Germany. Well loving roller coasters obviously I am doing a roller coaster designing company. Unfortunately I am stuck with Schwarzkopf Personally I am not a big fan of their rides, but that is besides the point. So I decided for my "Original Composition" I was going to make a roller coaster out of Popsicle Sticks. WOW. What a bright idea that was! I have not got much done yet because I have been working on the poster board. Anyways... I thought you guys might find this interesting. So I will post updates as I progress!! I can not wait to see the finial product!! Check back often for new pictures!! OH and sorry the pictures are so blurry. I think I messed up my camera last time I dropped it.

So this white thing is what I have to work with.

So this is the roller coaster I am going to make.

OMG You can so see part of what will be the station.

Another view of what I have to work with.

This is the first of the station. SO it does not look like much, but it will be!!

What you have so far looks pretty good, although it isnt THAT much.

you've insulted me. he made some of the most memorable rides ever

 

Besides, "their" isn't proper. Schwarzkopf is the guy's name, Anton Scwarzkopf. You might as well do some googling. Actually just go to schwarzkopf.coaster.net

 

If you didn't like Schwarzkopf you could have done Gerstlauer, Mauer Sohne or Mack because we all know how great their rides are

I did not mean to insult anyone. I was just saying, I would have rather done a differant company. OH and I used "Their" Schwarzkopf is the guy's name, but it is also a company. When you are talking about a company (Like I was) you use "Their!" Thanks for the link the the website though!!

~Matthew *Still Hates This Project* Stout

[StyleStorm]

Gerstlauer doesn't make bad coasters.

[IwantRevenge]

^yeah but try and make a euro-fighter out of popsicle sticks

 

Good luck dude and cheer up it's Shwartzkopht

[thrillrideseeker]

Supports for the layout are almost complete! I can not wait to be done with this!! Oh and again I am sorry for the blurriness of the pictures. I am so buying a new camera as soon as I get to Florida! Anyways... I hope you enjoy the update! Oh and I had to change the turns a little bit.

 

~Matthew *Did I mention this is do Monday* Stout

Congrats on the A! Looks great, although I would give that project a 100%!

[the sound]

You know, you could of done a model of one of Werner Stengel's rides.

 

That narrows it down to... nearly everything!

[KrazyT]

It looks great, I dont know what youre talking about.... It does NOT look bad at all.

Is what you used for the track construction paper? [if so or if not], how did you make the track?

[thrillrideseeker]

Acutally it is not construction paper, it was some kind of "Card Stock" paper, which is a little thicker than construction paper. To make the track, I just cut all of the paper the same size, and started glueing it to the supports, and when I came to the end of a strip of paper, I would simply glue another strip of paper to the end of it, and the next thing I know I was done

I have a challenge for you. Try and make a popular American coaster, like Tatsu or Griffon.

Good luck with that. You should've used coaster dynamix. Woot for real working models!
