Project 2015: Tempesto

[Nicole]

So, I have been wondering if the winds last night damaged the park. Then I thought about the flags on Tempesto. I was surprised at their mounting them so early anyway.

Anyway, I hope nothing was broken.

Just went by Busch... Sign looks like it's still in one piece.

Oh, that's interesting. I guess it's a fine metal mesh. Thanks for the pictures!

I sort of got into an Instagram argument yesterday about those metal signs. I insisted that, based on what's been shared here, they're supposed to look like flags. However, the person I was arguing with, who claimed to be an employee in Festa, swore up and down that they weren't supposed to be banners or anything like that at all. Anyone able to clarify?

 

[Zachary]

They're supposed to look like banners. In fact, they do look like banners.

Did anyone catch on from the pics above the banner is a yellow/orange sun? Isnt tempesto a storm? ... Plot twist Apollos Chariot will have banners of clouds up its lift.

 

[Griffon]

I think I posted the exact same thing a couple weeks ago...cough cough...yes they are not flags. Flags would be a terrible idea

I saw that argument. I couldn't roll my eyes enough.

This is interesting, was browsing through google and came across this image. The person who made this has done work for bg before could this be the backdrop to a promotional for the ride whenever they do decide to advertise it?

More than likely an early draft but who knows.

 

[Party Rocker]

Looking and seeing that the artist also created the Mach Tower promotional image and that both images seem to be the same style, it seems very possible that the park would use that for their promotional  images. It is also likely they may use a few different variations of that image.

I like the little caped stunt bike rider in the loop shadow. 'Tempesto' the stormy stunt bike rider strikes again!

If you look in the center of the actual loop on the background you'll see an impression in the clouds that looks like some sort of goggles, and then if you look on the really accurate drawing of Roman Frieze's building, there's a Tempesto banner. And above the word 'Tempesto' you'll see a flaming symbol, and the thing on fire kind of looks like the impression in the center of the loop...

Could that be Tempesto's signature "symbol" or something?

This is making me wish it had turns.

 

[Mushroom]

I have to be honest, that really doesn't look so bad. I especially like how they incorporated the Little Balloons in the background to enhance the Italian carnival theme.

Going on the website it appears to be a final draft. Also, above the banner where it says Tempesto you can see what I assume is a portion of the logo. It shows a helmet with goggles and flames above the helmet.

 

[Zachary]

I actually think the concept art is fantastic- much like Mach Tower's.

The artist is clearly incredibly talented.

 

[Jrbgwfan06]

Some of the already existing things the artist puts in the background are so accurate that you would think they were photoshopped in.

 

[John]

I actually really love the looks of this. The little details in the background really pull it all together. Pompeii, and the pillars in San Marco are some nice touches.
