There is a new art contest happening over at deviant art. It is for a publisher for their upcoming book on EVE. So if you are an artist or an aspiring artist, head over to EVE Online Cover Art Contest for the details.

Not going to touch that with a 2 light year long pole. I remember how much of a mess DA made of the first contest. Ugh
Incompetent is not covering how they work there. Roll

Didn't the winner's submission from a previous Deviant Art contest end up becoming the Talos?

The Tornado was by far eveyones favorate.

It didnt get a look in by DA who went for the LA Battlecruiser.

You can take your "favorate" and gtfo. The Talos is my favourite, so your everyone is at least everyone-1.

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

While entries in a couple of DA contests become the teir 3 BCs, it was no the winners (nor, in the case of the Talos, even a finalist - IIRC) The decision was made by CCP and CCP alone.

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.

Great idea, you know, since the first one went sooo well.

Guys at DA have been trying to sharpen their act....dont know if they have succeeded yet but they have been lobbing a lot of mail out to members outlining their "improvements"

Guess well see.

Perhaps they should also start a contest to come up with a better new Minmatar destroyer design....

The description of the book says it's "completely unofficial". If so, and they're making money off selling it, maybe CCP should have a word with them.

(Yes, I do realize EON Magazine and ISK: The Guide exist, but I believe they have clearance from CCP and are therefore not completely unofficial.)

None of those images even look remotely EVE-ish. Even the battlecruiser that's loosely based off the Myrmidon.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)
