Second Global War Fighter Challenge!

29.6k LegnaK  2.9 years ago

Fictional Fighter plane Challenge:

Deadline: 10th February 2022

UPDATE: Deadline extended to 20th February 2022

Hello everyone! This is my third challenge, and today, I would like you to develop a World War II era fighter! There is one catch to this challenge though; the fighter must be fictional, it may bear resemblance to pre-existing real life aircraft, however there must be enough of a difference to tell it is indeed fictional. AND it must be associated with one of these nations

The rules are rather simple:

  • It must be an original build of your design. If you want to use an aircraft you've designed previously, please modify it.

  • It must be a successor to this challenge, I would prefer not to go through a maze to find a participant.

  • Entries must be realistic in their performance, Maximum Speed is 450 MPH and must have a realistic flight performance.

  • Aircraft under 150 parts will be disqualified

  • Avoid using mods. XML is allowed and expected, except: gravity, health and infinity fuel.

  • Each contestant may submit up to 3 aircraft

  • The description is mandatory and it will be specified: 1) Year of introduction, 2) Nation of origin 3) Brief history of plane, 4) Options and specifications

  • No national markings are required, however the more in-depth and detailed your aircraft is, the higher your score.

  • Propellers only! no jets!

  • The Aircraft must be from the eras of 1930's through 1946

  • Only wing guns and cannons are allowed cannons cannot exceed 40 mm

  • BONUS POINTS FOR DETAILED INTERIORS
    -------------
    JUDGING

  • Handling, stability, agility: 10 points :: Does it fly level? is it a stable build?

  • Realistic model and behavior: 10 points :: It is a realistic airplane design for the time. It has a noble behavior in flight

  • Details, paint and other: 10 points :: Are the details of the aircraft done well? Do said decals protrude? Does the coloration suit the aircraft?

  • Build quality: 10 points :: Does this aircraft function well or is it just eye candy?

  • Personal impression: 10 points :: Is this an aircraft that I would enjoy flying?

  • Description: 10 points :: Is the history of the aircraft well set? Does it cover any noticeable events with said aircraft? Is the history of the plane well fleshed?

------------

If enough challengers are around, an extra, streamed Dogfighting leg of the challenge will be held!

    Hey everyone, I genuinely want to apologize for the lack of any clarity or updates, lately life has been hectic with a combination of work, moving, and all around lack of free time and internet access, I'm sorry I haven't posted results and I'm very sorry I haven't made it a priority to keep you all up to date, I'm hoping that I can finish this shortly and again, I'm very sorry about all this. Trust me, I don't like this situation anymore than you all do :(
