Sometimes a day goes by where nobody posts about how they've run out of ideas, but it's pretty unusual. Often the post ends with a question about what to build next, to which I usually give the same answer.
But today I present to you, the uninspired masses, a new font of revelation. BEHOLD: giant, laser-breathing, force-field-farting seafood.
You're welcome.
@ProcessedPlAnEs Sometimes it's hard to tell, but I do a ton of research whenever I build a plane. Wikipedia articles usually have enough info to get most of the basic stuff, but I like to dig a bit deeper and the Superfortress has a lot of history.
The more I dug into her, I realized something and I sorta changed my mind about a few things. The B-29 is probably the most beautiful 4 engine plane of the 1940's, and that's saying something. But I hate her.
I absolutely hate that airplane because she was designed from the ground up to murder as many innocent women and children as possible and do just about nothing else. You can't hit anything smaller than a city from 30,000 feet in the air, the bombs blow all over the map. So they just dumped them on the cities, burned them to the ground. Sure, the fires also burned strategic targets like rail yards, factories, supply depots. But mostly, they just killed millions of civilians.
I'm not going to say anyone was right or wrong, it was a war. All I'm saying is that this weapon can't ever be used for defense. It can't hit a tank, it couldn't even hit a ship, it can only destroy civilian lives. Sure, they used the Superfort for other stuff like reconnaisance and I thought about making a recon version, but that's not why people care about this plane.
She was an amazing machine in terms of flying, but I just get so depressed whenever I think about building one. I know she's your favorite, and I want you to know that I'm sorry.
@BurkeEnterprise Click the links, amigo
Build an airship!
@jaredgamer Here's a Piaggio P7someone just made, one of my all time favorite concepts.
@jaredgamer Oh, I've got a whole mess of planes lined up. I posted this for all the folks that can't seem to decide. I was spacing out at work, thinking how cool it would be to design a 3000mph great white shark that flew around with a flaming rainbow coming out of its tail and neon lasers belching from its mouth like a gatling gun volcano, when I remembered Ace Of Seafood already did that, kinda. And then I thought "Why keep this idea to myself? There are more than a few people with the skill, and maybe someone with the will to make it happen!"
Try making a Macchi M.C. 72 I've always thought they were cool
