I agree with pretty much everything that everyone's said.

Google some pics of 'Six Flags Entrances' and go from there.

I WILL add that I personally think you should use Photobucket instead of Imageshack.

Images just seem to work out SO much better there across the board.

God, I'm gonna sound like K0NG here (please don't ban me for this) but, that's just MY opinion. I could be wrong.

Down into the loop and back up and final hills to the station:

youve only got half a station! though its a good station.

eh, you need more landscaping, and the name doesnt really fit that kind of coaster imo.

[Emergo]

Yeah!! Photobucket does fine

I like that station. Only thing imo is: there are so many flowers inside it that there would not be any room for the riders to get on and off the trains....(in reality then, and of course it does not have to be realistic, but that's up to you...)

Some more landscaping indeed would be good here I guess: really like what you did in the second screen with that rocky part there, simple but very effective!

Keep it up

Wood land Trail - Pic 1 - The flowers over the entrance work really well, but the ones in the station make it seem cramped. Maybe put some flowers around the wait line to spruce that area up. I'd stay with the color choices, heavy on the purple, light on the pink and orange- adds interest to the basic coaster colors w/o clashing. The side of the entrance arch near the station looks kinda flimsy, maybe give some better support. The station looks great from this view, not too simple, not too busy.
Pic 2 - Nice job on making the start of the coaster exciting! The rocky terrain works well.
Pic 3 - This view of the station doesn't look as good as the front view. It does look like it's only half a station, maybe because the columns go so much higher on this side than the front. It needs something, just not sure what. Perhaps a single row of roofing on this side?
Pic 4 - With as much supports as the rest of the ride has, the cobra roll looks like it was forgotten or something, it needs some beefier supports to go with the rest of the coaster. I love the track and support colors, they compliment each other nicely.
Overall - Looks to be a very solid coaster that just needs some tweaking to make it great. Keep up the good work

*claps* Pretty nice coaster, I really HATE those supports... that's just me though, I prefer the B&M Twister pack. I'd like to see some stats...

[ldw]

world:It does look like half a station.
Emergo:Thanks for the great advise and the Photobucket tips.
midengine:Thanks for the detailed advise.
Luketh:Stats to come soon, I quite like the supports.

SMALL UPDATE
Premier Park has done some tweaks to the tickets booths, and also there
has been a complete makeover to the entrance, also the staff and design
buildings have been removed for the new car park coming soon.





FUTURE PLANS
We have some sketch drawings of Woodland Trail have
new colours and its new name is to be NIGHTSHADE, also
there is a sketch of the new plans for the back of Nightshade's station.





Enjoy!

Cool, like those "sketches"... and I told you those supports were just me... Some stuff just gets on my nerves, and I'm cool that way.

[nin]

nightshade looks like wooden trail....

[coastercrazy]

Looks good but reminds me of Springbank Park for some reason... Anywho, I like the sketches too, they make me think of real amusement parks.

Keep it up!
