Kotaku
And the entries are pouring in! Above, reader Daniel cosplays as an airplane. Here's what's going on: Dress up as an airplane or make a three dimensional airplane out of anything tangible, but paper. So you can't make CGI planes! And you can't draw them either! But, you can make them out of anything else as long as it's not paper. Rocks, clay, toothpicks, whatever! And remember, that means make and not build a plastic plane model you bought in the store. Send entries to kotakucontestATgmailDOTcom and, like all contests, don't forget to add a "Kotaku" sign. Remember, we're giving away two copies of the game and INTERNET FAME. Haven't figured out if we'll give one out to the best cosplay and one to the best 3D plane, though...
Hit the jump for Kevin's plane, which he made out of 300 pipette tips.

DANIEL FOR THE WIN!!!! these guys must really love kotaku.
I'm European, does that mean I have to send in two entries?
(sorry, Rock Band's still pissing me off)
My first thought at seeing the first picture:
"ZOOM!"
My second thought:
"That's pretty damn creative. The shark-toothed traffic cone is the perfect touch."
Now if I wasn't such a weenie
Do you think you'd still love me
Pretending I'm an airplane on the living
Room floor
Aw does this mean they passed mine up? :(
When did Kotaku start showing gay bondage porn?
Excellent use of caution tape.
Weak Kotaku sign.
Keep it up
I hope the glue dries up quickly enough for mine.
He used the 1000 microliter pipet tips! Woo! That's cool. :)
@sloth1991: Not necessarily. They don't show all the ones that they are considering until the end.
Who has pipitte tips lying around like that :P
I wish I had INTERNET FAME...
@Hion: It's not all that it's hyped up to be. :-/
@Iceking5: I know that when I get home from school I don't want anything to do with micropipet tips.
It looks rather plain to me...(HAHA GET IT? Plain...Plane... Plain? LOL AT MYSELF)
....I'm such a loser...
...I'm disappointed so far. While both require effort, they're a little overwhelming after Eggtaku.
I guess I'll have to do something to save this contest*.
*Note-I'm not actually going to create something decent. I'm just going to create something so lame everything else looks good.
@Polywhirl: Typo- underwhelming.

@Polywhirl: You mean like I did for the PSP design contest?
i made mine out of recyclables; a coke can, a water bottle and some cardboard.

@Hion: "Oh Dude! It's Hion!! I know of him from the Net, from the Kotaku Komments Section!!"
Better?:)
They had to be smoking to think of that. Makes me think I need to use some of the cardboard in my house to make me something nifty.
That looks more like the NSFW fish than a plane.
Yay! They used my pic for the reminder!
Of course, last time they did that, I wasn't even a finalist (I submitted the Aces Combat Sixes photo).
Good luck to everyone, hope to see some great competition!
btw, more pics here

@ncsuduncan: and that's my pipet planefish
to Brian Ashcraft
yah i think it would be fair to give one to the best cosplay and one to the best plane made out of tangible objects.
You know, since they are in a different class it would be hard to compete with like a cute cat plane or something.
@male roof blower: wow theres a blast from the past nice offspring reffrence.
Hell that first one made me laugh so i hope it wins.
@Dakobah: Nah i think strapping airplane wings on him this time would be overkill so everyone is safe for now :P
Well, this is my first entry as a Kotakuite--my first comment too. Hopefully both the cosplay and material planes receive the same consideration.
I just noticed the Guitar Hero 2 controller strapped to his arms..
Absolutely love the Nerf Maverick mounted on the nose of the cone.
Bet that'll come in handy.
>_< apparently my entry was completely ignored ? /cry
cardboard from toilet paper rolls illegible?
In elementary school i set a rocket building club from those , one kid joined and we had two meetings.
haha the first one is the funniest pic iv seen on here in a while.
The first one is kinda funny. I have taken pictures of my plane already. I´m just waiting for my account to be approved.
Can I send them anyway ?
Love the cosplay plane! It's like he's really flying~
The pipet one would be cooler if the shape was more plane-ish though :(
