Hunter Story!

Here is Hunter, I designed this ride towards the end of 2009, and it survived my entire computer getting wiped! It wasn't as well received on the forums as I'd hoped but I still think it's one of my favourite creations. It takes inspiration from B&M dive machines such as SheiKra, Griffon and their Chinese counterparts. Here's a little story of how the ride was created.

The first element I made on the ride when I decided I needed to finish it. 

Here's an early screen of one of the first layouts, I liked the way it looked but there were too many right turns and it had major pacing and clearance issues.

I changed the layout here by mirroring some parts. I thought the immelmen under the first drop was messy. That massive vertical drop needed it's own space.

I finally got the layout I wanted, but slightly extending the top corner and having the first drop swoop under the lift, it moved the whole ride round to a position that looked great and rode great.

I began supporting the ride and establishing it's image. I wanted it to be abit tribal and foresty.

The ride had a logo! And with Buster's Forester environment things start coming together.

And now with a new cartexture the ride was complete.

Enjoy your ride on Hunter.
