As a reward of loyal player toward a faction, can it be possible to have a set of ship SKINs that require certain standing value to use?

(for example), A player that have 9.0 standing toward amarr empire, he can apply "Amarr Divine Commodore SKIN" to amarr ship.

the SKIN can purchase in the LP store or just unlock when player reach certain standing.
and the system will check the player standing when he click to apply the SKIN.

it also can fit into factional warfare militia ranks as a highlight of that player reach certain rank.

I'd love to have this for militia standings so I could fly a thorax but with caldari colors

I'd love to see this as an unlock. Have a Milita skin, join the milita, can apply this skin to any ship of the right race. Fly off race, no skin.
And yea, Corp standings for NPC corps.

As a mission runner with high standings all around, I'd like this very much. Mostly because free skin is best skin.

You already get free faction ships when you reach insanely high standings with the relevant faction...and you want MORE?!

Yes. Btw, 9.9 to get the BS is insanely hard to get to, and usually means it locks you off half of Empire space.

This IS a nice idea, something relatively easy to implement and a nice reward. FW skins could be different from NPC grinded standings.

Yes, I know. The fact is, the option is still there, and people have got it. It's not impossible.

There should be consequences for your actions in this game - endlessly grinding missions for the Amarr, for example, should give the positive consequence of getting that faction BS (as you have been a loyal supporter of the Empire), but it should also give the negative consequence of being blocked off from Minmatar and Gallente space (blowing up our Navy for the last god-knows-how-many-years? You're not coming in!). That is good and is as it should be, and the current rewards generally - I think - reflect that.

The billions of ISK and millions of LP from getting your standing that high isn't enough?
