I'm curious what all those that work for CCP (and others) would say about any ship that fascinates them to view. You see these things most e'rday.
This is about the Look, Feel, and senses it summons...ignore stats and capabilities.
Think like wine tasting.
Pseudo examples,
Bhaalgorn- Smells of fresh hewn pine. I think of a forest, the lone black cherry among the plenty and Dagwood from Seaquest. Alone she runs hot, in company, cold. She would be a spiral if only she could stray from the path ahead.
Punisher- I am conjugal. I do not ride, I flow. The end I bring will be mine own. Sleek and full and sparse, I move and sheen as only I allow to be seen. Harken a nutty ale, no wisdom only fullness. I am a moment squared...THRUST!

Expound/express as you will. The awesome these ships have wrought will always deserve more poetic and visceral rendering.
P.S.- We still need a stretched shuttle to cruise w/ Jakon's head in a jar.

Just what EVE needs, another space-phallus.

A professional astro-bastard was not available so they sent me.

the Golem. was my great white buffalo, and motivation for training all support skills to V. the last skill I completed for my perfect Golem was Caldari BS V, and I had finally mounted my mythical beast.

Also before one of the OH SO COMPETENT forum ISDs comes in here and locks the thread, this is CCP sourced material from The CCP 2013 April Fools Vid

The Kimmugygur is indeed a marvel of engineering and I for one cannot wait to see the awe it inspires when Dust mercs look up and realize they are at its mercy.

I spotted the first half and was like "wait a second....."

Then scrolled a bit with slight worry that you hadn't posted it yet.

Now my day is complete.

I would be an 'others'.

The most powerful ship a new player can have... the Noob ship... any of them. They are great for going into lowsec and picking up items, free, and some pirates (lions) have looked at me (mouse) and let me go by. If I get popped... who cares.

No better ship for a new player (no implants) to venture into lowsec with. I wish some of the level 1s had missions that sent players into lowsec with them.
