This week I made a lot of progress on the model! I really feel like I'm getting to know Blender pretty well; I'm learning all kinds of technical stuff, like how hierarchies work. I modeled the front and back wheels, and now I can start working on the seat, and the upper part of the rollercoaster car. It's going to be difficult to make sure it's not too top-heavy! After I finish working on that, I'll start on the tracks.

Here's what I have so far working with the new 3D modeling software. I know it doesn't look like much, but the new program is much more complicated than Tinkercad. So there's a bit of a learning curve. Hopefully I'll get proficient with it soon!
Major update incoming! So, I haven't posted in about a month, not because I'm not still enthusiastic about the project, but because of Covid-19. My project is at my school, which I don't have access to, and so I can't do anything physical with it. However, I'm going to continue to work on it digitally, which includes fully 3D modeling the car and tracks. I'm going to probably learn and work with Blender, and also use NoLimits 2 to plot out the track. Look forward to weekly updates from now on!
