Primae - useless but good looking ship (better then Noctis).
Orca - big enough to hold details in scale.
Brutix - looks strong enough to love it.

Scale. Like a B5 paper sheet.
Solid.
Full painted.
Lights/USB hub - optional

THORAX

it looks like its dragging along a rather large turd underneath it


Just paint a dildo and strap that turd underneath, there's your accurate model.

Lightning is important, better if it will be painted assembled version. Size? Near 10"x10"x10"

MALLER/SACRILEGE

For all the (_FALSE_) crap the Maller gets, the Incarna redesign is absolutely one of the more interesting looking ships in the game. It's gorgeous to look at, and has a design that's unique without falling into the weird-lookin (cough Caldari ships) category.

I don't really care if it's a boxed kit, a full model, if it lights up or if I paint it or if you paint it. I will buy the **** out of this.

1. Merlin Nugoeihuvi Edition
2. Nemesis
3. Rattlesnake
4. Clear Skies edition Tempest

Realising that these dont scale well next to each other...

Frigs at 8 to 10 inches / 25cm
BS at 14 to 16 inches / 45cm

Quality is most important....offer painted and bare for those who want to be creative.
Lighting would also show quality, .. battery power over usb gimickery.
Various lighting patterning - solid, alternating, slow pulse, aircraft random .

A Pod .. keychain fob would be fun, with a push button LED light .

( A Chimera or my favourite Rorqual about 5ft / 1.5m would be $$$ but fun to mount over the TV. )

Dare I suggest a model of the monument ? Big smile

I would buy the rattle snake, thanos, or the nyx.

just as a side note, why do this in a fourm instead of making some type of poll where you could chose your top three. I think it would give you guys a more precise way of knowing exactly which ships players are interested in

Thorax

I would like a painted model, maybe with different paint jobs (Deimos, Navy, other) with a length of ca. 35 cm.
Lighting would be cool but probably to expensive.

For comparison, this model looks a bit cheap. I'd want more than that.

This model of the Firefly seems about right in size and detail, but the price is a bit OUCH! (NZ$500, US$435)
No need for removable parts though, as we've never seen the inside of EVE ships.

If it's going to cost more than US$100, I'll think twice about it. It'll have to look astonishing for me to go further.


That is what you get when you take this cheap model and get someone to paint them professionally... If you want a pimped out professional looking version, you will have to pay the people to paint it. Otherwise you have Mr chang in his factory of 10,000 cranking them out by splashing paint around and they look awful.

It takes time and steady hands to paint details like the above models, and those aren't even that good looking.

Also, you assist me in my case against selling pre-made / pre-painted models... You want high quality but you dont want to pay high quality prices. None of us do, bar a few dedicated (or wealthy) individuals. I may not have a lot of RL dollars, but I am space rich. If the models were cheap, people in the EVE community who can / do this kind of thing for hobby, sport, and business will step up.

They will offer their service for a fee. That fee cannot be any actual currency (unless CCP gives then the go ahead) but ISK is fine. So you give them the ISK, they ship you the detailed ship of your dreams, maybe even with your custom design painted on.

CCP, you already sold high quality models in the past for a relatively high amount (not including tax and shipping). Compare your sales there with the Second Decade Collectors Edition (which 90% of us bought for the USB rifter...lets be honest). Look at the accuracy and quality of $20 model kits from hobby stores. You can still make limited production Pre-Made ships for raffles, prizes, etc. Diversify. Pander to all income-levels.
