Concept art is overrated

 

[Parkscope Joe]

Let’s not sour grapes here guys, we should have concept art, a name, opening time frame, and more information by now but we don’t.

 

[Teebin]

We are well past concept art. I think the only concept we will see is actors/models actually riding it in a video commercial.

:?: Sorry for wanting to see more "official" info on this ride. I can only watch the fan made POV's so many times.

Vague Concept art, hell even a "name" would be good.

No need apologize, you’re right.

There's also still three and a half months left in the year.

Yes, I think they mean opening details

I'm kidding of course...They will release something...They even released art for Fallon and F&F

They probably REALLY want to show people this has no screenz/isn't a simulator

More structures going up!

 

[Teebin]

A few things I noticed in this picture... the first is that the evac platforms for the straight away leading to the hut or whatever it is have arched supports (click pic to zoom)... that is world class theme park building in that they might never be seen.

Second is we can finally see the actual depth that the pond will be at assuming it will be maintained to within 6-10” of the top of the concrete coaster supports. Note that the other straight evac concrete has been completely coated and sealed. I assume the water will come very close to that entire structure.

Not sure I am seeing arched supports there, I see the track covers and those are arched with something (duct tape??) covering some joints between the pieces.

If you look at the bottom right hand of the photo just above the HE entrance you can see the metal walkways that accompany the track coming out(in) of the hut building. Below that is the arch supports that @Teebin is talking about same material (color wise) is below that.

Sorry I just don't see anything arched there other than the track cover

Look UNDER the track/catwalk.

Thank you I get it now, it is obvious if I just look at the correct place. I was looking over the track not under it where @Teebin eye was seeing clearly.

Yes but we do have a new coaster being built that looks like a lot of fun. I'll forego concept art any day for that. Also, Gabe provided a great concept for the ride. I still remember the days when concept art was an artist's very loose depiction of the ride's name. The Beast was simply cartoon rails with giant claws coming at you.

For that matter, I'm still waiting for the concept art for Kings Island's new antique car ride.:whistle:

I understand (due to safety) that it won't happen but I would have loved a pathway going trough this ride area.

Cobras curse?

 

[tielo]

Cobras curse?

I didn't say there are no walkways trough coaster area's anywhere in the world, I's sure there are, I mean I expect Universal didn't do it because their lawyers don't approve it due to possible safety issues.

I'm not one of those people where the theming and storyline need to be exactly as we saw in the movies.....but it will be interesting to see how the structures and storyline end up being sold to us. I trust Universal when it comes to Potter....but I'm still very intrigued by what I am seeing.
