Hasn't anyone read comments from people who've seen the new ship? It won't be the Aquilon. It's been described as beautiful and awesome looking -- which the Aquilon clearly isn't. That's not to say that the Aquilon isn't well modelled and very Gallente - it is. But it's certainly not fitting the description.

It's probably going to be the Megalodon posted early in the thread.

Most Gallente ships are, so it makes sense

Anyone else notice that the fans are making nicer looking ships than are in game?

Lets keep picking our new ships from the fans shall we?

Oh thank the holy one. Please let it be the Aqulion model then.

The Endymion looks too much like a Proteus but is Gallente looking.

I can't look at the Aquilon concept art without thinking "Elephant Man", I've said it already on Twitter, but I'm voicing it here too... I honestly hope to God it's not that one.

Elephant Man Lol Well, most Gallente ships are a face only a mother could love. It looks like a cross of a Myrm and a Brutix with a Vextor aft to me.

I'm hoping for an Endymion or Aqulion, the Megalodon is too big for a BC hull and the Naru-Kami doesn't even fit Gallente (nor any race)

the aquilon is easily the ugliest ship people have mentioned. all i see when i look at it is "boring blob with huge cartoon nose sticking out of it".

maybe you will use the winner of the other ship design contest for the amarr BC?

ccp navigator?


well, it won the other competition and its the *only* good looking amarr entry in either one. I'd consider it a shoe-in, as it fits with EVE as well.

I resemble that remark.

Personally I'd prefer the Gallante BC be modeled somewhat on the Catalyst design. it's unique, and has lots of room for BS weaponry... and oddly enough I find it graceful in flight somehow.

But that's just me.
