This has probably already been posted but it was new to me. I'm selfish like that. I was playing around with Google Maps tonight and noticed an updated aerial that shows the Kong building. I looked at this earlier today and it wasn't updated. I got on the site tonight to show DW where the new hotel and waterpark were located. Anyway.
Do we yet know the ride track/circuit layout as it goes through the outdoor section and the show building?
No. Generation Snowflake needs to butch it up a bit.
And I assume it's something that cannot be shared by those in the know. Although I do seem to remember a rough layout of Gringotts was shared well before the ride opened.

A few shots from today. Looks like new rockwork coming soon to the right side of the building now above the overhang.
^ I remember back at the end of March someone proclaimed that they were moving so fast on this rockwork they will probably be done by the end of April. I replied that they will be lucky if they are done by August. Now I wonder if they will hit the deadline of November. (there is a funny story that goes with that month)

Took a spin through here twice including once at night. Worklights reveal they're well under way inside... No pics for obvious reasons but trust me well underway :thumbsup:
That facade just keeps growing and growing.
It'll easily give Poseidon's Fury a run for it's money when it's finished It looks amazing in photos, but really gives you chills when you see it in person. Towering and foreboding.

I can't help feeling that some of the interest of the shape, and the detail of the sculpting, is being lost in the total uniformity of colour. There's just such a huge expanse of it. I hope some foliage or the diffusing of well-placed light sources will help to break it up a bit and highlight the details.
I know it's prototypical and all, but still.

Once the door is in place along with the trees, I'm sure it'll break things up. However they do that mountainous wall in the back will definitely help I'm sure. I'm quite curious as how that is going to turn out.
We already lost the original Dementor attack thanks to cry babies, I really hope they don't tone it down on this one too.
Remember that it was Warner Bros. that wanted it toned down, not UC or Universal. This is a Universal/Jackson project.
