Competition: Woodworking: X-Wing

Context

Today's creative landscape is more fluid than ever, artists are no longer confined to a single form of expression. Instead, they can explore and combine a wide range of mediums; from digital illustration, to photography, or traditional painting, sculpture, and mixed media. This graphics competition wishes to celebrate that and offer opportunities to add more diversity to our art community by inviting participants to push beyond the norm and share how different mediums can be used.

Objective

This competition will focus on how this month’s prompt can be created using the medium of woodworking. Can you whittle a block into something looks like the prompt? Can you take a etch the image into a beautiful peice? I leave you to come up with how to include the concept in this medium.

This Month's Prompt

X-wing Starfighters, otherwise referred to as the X-wing class, were a type of starfighter marked by their distinctive S-foils that resembled the High Galactic script's character "X" in attack formation. They were heavily armed with four laser cannons on the S-foils and proton torpedo launchers in the fuselage. X-wings were designed for dogfighting and long missions. During the Galactic Civil War, the Rebel Alliance used X-wing models like the T-65B X-wing starfighter and T-65C-A2 X-wing in many battles, deploying X-wings in engagements such as the Attack on Lothal, the Battle of Yavin, the Battle of Endor, and the Battle of Jakku.
