Whoever said that flying was safe obviously didn’t see our submissions to our most recent theme competition.
The Wright Stuff gave artists the opportunity to showcase the best aeronautical designs their minds could fathom. I was rather surprised the amount of “danger” in quite a few of the designs. Perhaps our designers have some repressed fear of flying hehe!
Let’s scope out the most dangerous flying designs for The Wright Stuff.
First up is a design that I showcased yesterday, as one of my favourites to scoop top honours for this compo.
May-Day by OneAway shows old school Spitfire war planes being attacked by a rather large eagle.
Shooo, it’s definitely not what these fly-boys were trained to fend off. They teach you to shoot at Nazi’s and the Japanese….but nothing can prepare you for the aerial assault of a deadly giant eagle. Seriously, did Hitler have some kind of ‘mutated birdie’ program?
This design reminds me of the legendary Roc. Which was a bird so big, it could pick up and carry off, a full grown elephant with ease. Scary stuff!
Vood00Child’s To The Skies design is no less treacherous. In fact it’s even worse!
Can you imagine flying through the “friendly skies” and BOOM out pops a ravenous dragon, bent on grinding your bones in his back teeth. Aiieeeee theres no escape from a bigazz dragon.
What is even funnier is that the plane being accosted is the original Wright Brothers style. Meaning, it sucks in regards to complex manoeuvres. They haven’t got a chance of escaping. At least OneAway’s design had planes that were armed LOL. This is most probably the most dangerous flying design of the lot.
My final choice for dangerous flying designs has to be IAmSam with his Flight of Fantasy design.
This one really made me giggle inside. Seriously whoever is inside that air balloon basket is pretty much screwed. Being circled by drakes is never a great way to end a ride that was supposed to be a panoramic-love-fest. Instead there will be lots o screaming, perhaps a munched fiancé and then the plummeting screech of the hot air balloon being thrust by gravity towards the mountains below. Ok ok, so maybe I’m being a tad pessimistic. Maybe they are “pet drakes” who are just flying alongside their master.
*SIGH* While I like that shiny alternative the facts speak for themselves:
1 x basket, empty of passengers.
Pretty much this means that they are cowering in the basket, or already had the sense to throw themselves to their own doom
Yeah theres plenty of scary stuff in our The Wright Stuff theme competition. These are the most dangerous flying designs you will find anywhere at the moment.
The question is…will any of these become our coveted winner?
You never know
