Since I've just hit 6,000 points (thanks, by the way), this seems to be a good time to issue a challenge for you guys! Your job is to build the best plane/car/boat/whatever you please WITHIN 60 parts, and I'll judge them based on looks, performance and creativity (if it's a completely new design) or accuracy (if it's a replica of some sort). Here are some ground rules:
1) All entries must be a successor.
2) Mods are NOT allowed. Fine tuning and scaling parts are permitted.
3) Make sure your creation is completely original.
4) Marks will NOT be added for fewer parts.
5) Multiple entries are allowed, as long as they're completely different.
Judging criteria:
Looks (How well it looks, plus details) : x/10
Performance (How well it handles): x/10
Creativity (How original the idea is): x/10
Accuracy (How close to the source material it is): x/10
Impressions (How I feel about it): x/5
Final score: x/35
Rewards:
1st: 10 upvotes
2nd: 7 upvotes
3rd: 5 upvotes
All entries receive an upvote.
Deadline is July 1st, so start building!

@BogdanX , should you choose to accept it, your F-16XL's final score is 32.5/35. I know I've messed up, but I'm still learning.
@Kerbango , your entry's final score is 30/35. Would have been higher if your plane didn't auto-roll the way described in its review.
@Tang0five , your English Electric Lightninghas scored a 29.5/35, coming at a close third. Look forward to your future builds!
@mauripeke25 , your de Havilland DH.100 Vampire has scored a 28.5/35. From what I can see here, you're off to a good start.
@Bobplanes322 , your B-36 has scored a 24/35. Don't get me wrong, it's still a cool build.
@PhantomBladeCorp Wow, thanks :D
Got you to 8k! :) @Ian1231100
@Delphinidae @BogdanX @LockheedLover @mauripeke25 Only 4 days remaining for the challenge. Are you ready?
@1206728076 I know you have only a week left, but wanna have a go?
@Kambeckham So basically, you download this plane, remove everything except the cockpit, and start building your entry.
Once you complete it, upload it, and it will automatically be listed as this plane's successor.
@Kambeckham Since you're new here (relatively), you can go to this link. It tells you all you need to know about the 'successor' system.
What do you mean by a successer?
@BogdanX Good, can't wait to see your entry!
@destroyerP Oh, my bad. You could give it a try if you like, though.
Umm I am not entering
@Delphinidae @BogdanX @destroyerP @LockheedLover @mauripeke25 15 days remaining for the challenge. Can't wait to see what you've got!
@mauripeke25 Or you can remove your cockpit from your plane, drag the whole thing to the upper left corner of the screen. This saves it as a sub-assembly.
@mauripeke25 I said 'make it a sucessor'. Remove everything except the cockpit and start building.

Potato is a potato
@IGNikolaev Wanna try your hands in the challenge?
@destroyerP Haven't you heard of a pet rock? If that exists, why shouldn't a pet potato?
Obviously eat it, otherwise what should you do with a potato? As a pet?
