epic artistic failure cakes

this is the first picture done post hormonal art swing. these happen every so often, and it basically makes it twice as hard to do half as much... the line work was fun, i love the idea, but i had absolutely no motivation to render it, and when i did, it sucked... this is a "without makeup" version of it ;_;

full suck version with the required 3 references is here [link]

*grumble grumble grumble*

You no epic fail! Pretty good since it doesn't really have to look like a fighter jet!

I know how you feel with the mood swings, I'm pretty much bipolar myself.
Not getting much of a 'space fighter' vibe off this one, seems a bit big and bulky for a fighter craft. Looks more like a corvette to me ;)

If you call this epic fail then I would like to see what you call epic win.

I understand the failure...

Those cannons can't shoot sh**t unless they are timed with the rotating panels! Haha!!

Of course, many concepts could be salvaged from this "epic fail"...

the panels don't rotate, and they are angled in such a way that a shot can always be made. additionally, if ww2 fighters could time their guns right, im pretty sure that wouldn't be an issue. that said, the guns cannot make a shot at certain points that would damage the craft - all that is pretty easy to do

almost anything else - my heart wasn't really in it, or rather, it was in the design, but even that i don't think too many understand. the carrier im working on now might complete the puzzle for some, and im liking its rendering much more - i also think i'll write up some nice juicy back story and stuff just to further cement how the fighter functions in combat :D

a few people are saying that it looks like a transport craft and stuff, and while its true i wanted to avoid the look of any known 'fighter' forms (the viper from BSG, or the xwing for instance) it all works out in my head. right now it would only seat 2, and they would both be small enough to both fit in one of the gun turrets (even though thats not where they are). also, the maneuvering of the craft would be so limitless and so spontaneous that it could fly and fight in any direction (think cloud's motorcycle fight in final fantasy 7 advent children but in three dimensions)

as for being bi-polar, i have no doubt that it is something hormonal causing this, but the cycle i am just leaving of drawing for 7 months has been a lot longer and more intense than my art cycles usually are, and even now im not feeling the crash as strong - i just hope i can keep producing portfolio worthy pieces without the solid blocks of time i once had :D
